my eyes are heavy ready to sleep but im afraid to close them im afraid that you'll leave im afraid when i wake you'll be gone once more i cant say goodbye i cant lock the door i cant tie you down and keep you to myself the world would get jealous my mom would freak out i wish i could hold you a while longer u can stay but u have a life to get back to you cant run away you cant keep on smiling you cant even try youve got to move on i just dont understand why why cant the world just stop for our love wouldnt it be nice no one could stop us but im gettin really tired of pretending this world is doin me any favors im fighting to stay up the few moments we have left are flying right by im holding my breath if i dont turn around maybe time will stand still but its already too late your clothes in hand getting dressed so soon? oh..time to go i understand this is the part i hate hold u close till it hurts till my breath is gone till my chest starts to burn but no im not sick its my heart and my soul u have them both now just know what u hold i tell u i love you i see in your eyes u dont want to leave but u didnt even try to lose your keys on purpose your always so careful- to not get caught here lost in my arms forever caught in your tears but ill see you again my door always open and you always have the key because i know that u love me |

Don't know why but this reminded me of an old girlfriend...my Mom would send us out for icecream and we'd end up making out on the side of the mountain and by time we got back the icecream was melted...and silly things like that...after awhile we learned to make out first and buy the icecream later...James |

"your clothes in hand getting dressed so soon? oh..time to go i understand" I loved those lines because I am still waiting for him to ask me to stay... Somedays it hurts to breath. I loved the poem. Susan |
