Standing In Silence...

I always do this
To my heart.
I know I shouldn’t
From the start.
I always know how
This will end.
There’s always wounds
Left to mend.

How could you ever find
It in your heart to be so kind
To see how much I need you
To feel the same way I do
And love me the way I need
To fix the way I always bleed
To be the candle and the flame
To give me love and keep me sane.

This agony of defeat
Is almost too much.
All I ever wanted was
To feel your touch.
Tried so hard-
All in vain.
When you just want
To play the game.

Ripping and tearing going
Straight through my heart
This poison is slowing
Desire is breaking me apart…
