So he loves her although does not confess To giving her the moon and stars And all of her wildest fantasies and dreams, But loves her. And she Attached but yet alone thinks Why? When the direction of her atttentions Turn toward others who are lonely And toward others whos life he could enrich With his truth and sincerity Perhaps she, too giving Never takes time for herself So she ponders this In unselfish thought And again in selfish thought. Ultimately she chooses the selfish thoughts. Because something within her loves him too. Maybe not as equally as stability would have her too, But loves him nonetheless And doesn't care to always question Why If When How Where Right or wrong. And then Hearing his "I Love You" She melts Disdainfully for her present situation, But melts nonetheless. Wrong or right matters not Just existence and the slow burn of his voice In her world In the rip she so long ago stitched With extra strength threads of hiding away. So She melts And her heart freezes Absently taking her breath And doing merciless things While the words swirl around in her like a virus That she is unable to contain With the antibiotic of protection and denial. He is infectiously loose within her With his words and "I Love You" And she is a powerless shell of "I Need This" And "I Need You" And on the brink somewhere within She only echos his "I Love You" in silence, Because his own power seems to cut out her tongue, And steal her voice. |

Red, Someone I can count on to read my words here! Dear friend. I do cherish you. I am glad you enjoyed this, and the move went well enough. Sven, I hope you can feel it. I was going for a great feeling in such a way that I only seem to be able to with words. You also, I can count on to read me here. Thank you. |
