soft snores of a man off in the distance
but here i lie awake bored to death with him
it all comes down on me an i see what needs to be seen
that through all this misery and strife
i was truely meant to be with you and only you
searching high and low for the love of my life
never ending pits and falls of wasted nothings
found you but then lost you in all these blurred surroundings
thought i could get by on life without you
but your face keeps creeping into my view
trying to erase you seems impossible
i guess im stuck with reality that i was made for you
your voice echoes off into my ears i havent heard it in a while
i was told to no longer talk to you
they feared i would go back to loving you
i guess its true
unfinished business
but i do not love you at least my heart says so
but my head won't stop thinking of you do you feel it too?
so why am i still in your picture
do you see me in the rearview?
we run from this but can we forever hide?
i know that in the end it wiill just be me and you
your hand will find mine someway somehow
don't ask me why im so sure of it
i just am
on a warm sunday afternoon i will see you
your face warm of dazzling glow
your eyes staring at a distance into mine
waiting for me down that long aisel
your woman you have waited for has arrived
now come love an collect your bride



I do not need shine or wealth, just a pen and some paper for my health

Ah, love is such a fickle thing!
Enjoyed this.

Such longing coupled with insecurity, desire and uncertainty.

You captured this well.

^ ^ James, one does not know of what the other thinks or feels, only can you guess from the actions they show.
