Your rejection hurts
More than you’ll ever know
Every time I call your name
Your response is the same
Time keeps us apart
It won’t let us start
To love with our heart
And give the mind a rest
You said all you want
Are my thoughts…
Well, you had them from the start
Thoughts that are fighting between giving and staying
Laying down the thin line of lust and remaining
Pure to the LOVE that gave life to this world
But the “I don’t know Yous” are justifying the reason
Behind this awkward season
That is staying longer than welcomed
Wishing and hoping and thinking and praying
That one day you and me
Will walk and touch and kiss in the streets
And at home
Where ever that may be
We will read meaningful and meaningless things out loud
And watch each other absorb one another
And…….breathe
