And beyond all words
Without a shimmer of a doubt
I see you there
Destined to be
My pain, my sadness
Overflows the container of my heart
Leaks out
Visible scars screaming at you
And all you could do was stare
Prying them open with your eyes
Your words
Your scent
What were you thinking
All the life gets sucked out
Leaving nothing but dry brittle remains
And yet you did your best
you tried so hard
You fought like a warrior
So sweet, so caring, so gentle
But all i saw was the walls closing in
The blanket coming over my head
The wind knocked out of me
And i panicked. I kicked. I screamed. I was yanked back in the undertoe, sunk far from the surface, deep deep inside the wells of me, hidden so far away
You searched day and night...in the blazing sun, the dry heat, you were dehydrated and starving and you just kept on going, sacrificing all your needs along the way.
And now, here i sit, somewhere in the depths, inching toward the surface, looking for that familiar face, that sweet scent, those translucent blue eyes, searching for what no longer exists...
and there you are
years later,
you flagged me down, we embraced, we walked away,
destined to be
Without a shimmer of a doubt
I see you there
Destined to be
My pain, my sadness
Overflows the container of my heart
Leaks out
Visible scars screaming at you
And all you could do was stare
Prying them open with your eyes
Your words
Your scent
What were you thinking
All the life gets sucked out
Leaving nothing but dry brittle remains
And yet you did your best
you tried so hard
You fought like a warrior
So sweet, so caring, so gentle
But all i saw was the walls closing in
The blanket coming over my head
The wind knocked out of me
And i panicked. I kicked. I screamed. I was yanked back in the undertoe, sunk far from the surface, deep deep inside the wells of me, hidden so far away
You searched day and night...in the blazing sun, the dry heat, you were dehydrated and starving and you just kept on going, sacrificing all your needs along the way.
