It's all about sacrifice...

The moment had come
I knew you'd ask me to choose
But not yet the traumatic decision
I would've made the same anyway
The time I saw long before you, for once
You felt the dark lack of anticipation...
This was the reason
I didn't want you to
Sacrifice peace with your family
For me
The same reason I was prepared
To watch you walk to the horizon of my life
Even the reason I have been pouring so much
Of me
Into us
That I hardly know what's me anymore
My soul, in the time we have,
Longs to catch a breeze
And float where I am carried.
It has no desire to be anchored
Not even to you
And pays no mind to my heart
Which falls rapidly into your eyes.
You feel I haven't played my part,
You alone sacrifice to make us work
Well, my love, I'll tell you now...
I told you at the beginning
I didn't believe I could reach
The peak of your expectations
But I'm surprising me by climbing
Higher
And with each step
I make a sacrifice of
Mind, body, heart and soul
So I ask
What does it look like to you?
And if you still can't see
Then maybe..
Maybe...

if you found out you were dreaming, would you want to wake up?
Please don't interrupt me. That last sentence took a lot of effort to think of and now I have to think of another one.
 
i really enjoyed the way the words fell together in this one. i lot of what you said is true in my life as well. i poured so much of myself into "us" that i forgot how to be my own person, and now, when there is no more "us" and just "me" and "him"... i cant remember who "me" is... and its taking me a long time to figure it out.

we hold our wounds close
to heart
wanting
but
never letting
them go
so many words
where do we start
more words for pain
than joy
maybe we just cherish our pain more
this is "inspired" by a conversation i just had with mirabii

How do you quantify happiness without pain?

Thanks people..
A lot to think on having re read what I wrote, and also all of your replies..
vurt Thanks so much for chatting with me that night I was supposed to be writing my essay.. I don't really remember much of what we talked about, but you had a really tonic effect on me and I really needed that.
