watching you sleeping
hearing you breathe
seems the only peaceful time I have with you
you wake to the sound of me weeping
tell me darling what do we do?

time is running out on us
we can't keep running back
to the place that found us
lonely and lost
so angry and unsettling
our time together has been

we're afraid of moving forward
so we sit
we wait
what will become of us
they're eight and five
so young
what will we tell them?
what have we done?

you drift back into your slumber
and I wonder
what do you find in your dreams?
am I there?
are we happy agian?

tell me dear...
can we begin again?.....

Sarah~
Welcome to Passions.
This seems to be a very searching piece.  
I hope you both find answers.
