Incoherent, disconnected A piece of me has fallen through Falling, drifting often weightless Until the time when I see you If I expand one more time From the void that is my heart Heaving streaks and trailing dust You just may shatter me apart If I put my arms around you Would you catch my fallen pieces In the void, you'd hear me screaming In the grip of love, releases Nakedness and disillusion When I fall from dreams I fear Enter in and cause confusion That I'd feel that you are dear On the cusp of fleeting moment A piece of me has fallen through I hear the words and fall to sleep The cliff I near, reads: "I love you."

my god.... "If I expand one more time From the void that is my heart Heaving streaks and trailing dust You just may shatter me apart" it's awesome.... the distance and longing expressed in lyrical phrasing.... clearly from the soul of you...... an awesome write which tears me up...... distance and longing can be beautifully painful |
