I called it peace
as I left you
forlorn and desolate
in the shadows of my mind

you called it denial
and laughed and smiled
at my reckless heart
you knew I'd be back
God you knew

I'm always walking out
and always running back

I never know
why or how
you stay
but you do
this I can count on
like the sun's rise
or the air I breathe

just like you know
I'll come back to you
every time I leave

O.K., You went and got me crying, now.  Maya - he does know and he will always be there!....ALWAYS!  Don't make him wait forever for the only peace that will ever allow your heart to rest.  You both deserve the happiness of sharing life together.  Some people only dream to feel what you have shared...don't let it get by you, lest you be restless forever.

What more can I say?! Michael has expressed the feelings and words I have in reading this. When someone is in your life and affects you this way........ take hold of what is in front of you and never let it get by you. Love like this is rare!

Love is sometimes like a boomerang...you try and get really distant from someone, but you come back! I don't know too much about love, I'm only 14... But I know a little more now, thanks for the read Maya!   Wish you'd post more often!

I went through something like this in my first marriage, although probably for different reasons. I'm glad I never went back the last time I left. I wish I hadn't gone back after the first time I had left. Well anyway, that's off the subject at hand...great poem!
