Wanting to whisper the words
To tell you how deeply old feelings run
Like rivers through my soul
But knowing how unfair it would be
To place you in that position
I stay quiet, hoping beyond belief
That my silence conveys the words
I still can not say freely
And hoping that you know
Deep down inside, someplace
That I love you more then before

I play a waiting game
Placing bets on a stacked deck
Praying to unknown Gods
That my hand brings freedom
And allows me to run to you
Hold you, stay with you through life
Trying not to count my chips
Before the dealings done
And desperately clinging
To the pot I've yet to win

Struggling against bonds
That hold me tightly,
I watch as you move forward
And pray that my freedom
Comes before you board your ship
Setting sail into a life without me
I want to call out your name
Beg you to wait, just a little longer
But knowing that I can not ask that
Which would cause you more pain
I continue to struggle silently
Refusing to accept defeat
In this crushing battle of the wills

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.

I feel that way sometimes, nicely done.

Thiis is a wonderfully written poem, and so romantic and lovely. Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

So true...clinging to what we hope will be forever...even when we know there's no hope...
