Flood
Drowning in my tears
Day after day
I love you
I’m sorry
Is all you can say
I wish you could take my pain away
For loving you
This is the price I must pay
Drowning in my tears
Day after day
I love you
I’m sorry
Is all you can say
I wish you could take my pain away
For loving you
This is the price I must pay
A year has passed
Feeling as if it were yesterday
And also ten years ago
So unreal
I listen to the song
I remember
Emotions come flooding back
I’m there again
With you
Holding your hand
Reading you my letter
Wishing I hadn’t waited so long to tell you
Barely managing to get words out
Tears fall onto the bedsheet
Then and now
Struggling with acceptance
Still
Suppressing feelings
Reaching out for closure
It will come
Contemplating
Can’t stand the waiting
A new sensation
Brings temptation
So unreal
Yet how I feel
Its as if I’ve come undone
In the end lost not won
Consuming thoughts
And hopes and dreams
Can it be what it seems
Fearing what perhaps is true
Looking
Somehow finding you
“I love you!”
I scream
At the top of my lungs.
But only when no one
Is listening.
“You fool!”
They all say,
At my holding such thoughts.
If only they knew
What I’m fearing.
I fear him.
I fear me.
I fear loss.
I fear distance.
I fear what I’m holding within.
“Good God!”
I squeak out.
At all of my choices.
And decide that I have
Much more thinking.
