I go to the other room
And in the quiet corner I
Check to make sure my heart is
Still beating.
I get dizzy when I am overwhelmed and begin to think I might be dreaming or not real any more.
A heartbeat means I am real right?
Or maybe someone else needs to check it and tell me I am real because i could be tricking myself.
If I begin to weep
Be most certain
It is only because
I am overwhelmed by the
Beauty
Of
Your love,
The truth in your touch.
We were two sinking ships
Who could not quite
Reach each other in the squall.
Too
Overwhelmed and lost;
Arms too weakened to hold
Anyone but ourselves
Above the crashing waves.
Oh how I loved you.
And the crashing thunder
Roared pitilessly
Drowning out the sound
Of my breaking heart
As I,
Myself drowning,
Helplessly watched
You drift out of
Sight.
I dreamt a dream of times past;
Of you and I.
And I was overwhelmed with
Emotion.
I began to weep.
How can my heart be light yet heavy at once?
Thinking to capture you
I reach for pen and paper.
To write you down.
To read you forever.
But,
The ink had run dry.
To tired and weary to rise from my bed
I kept the memories
Lit inside me.
I placed my head on my pillow
And went back to dreaming instead .
