Never Had The chance-

Folder: 
Pedestals.

never had the chance

going back, to that place

where i dreamed,

where you, looked  at me

so innocently,

with what i saw

reflecting,

in those eyes

a lovers disguise

my heart was yours

for the taking,

even though,

in my knowing that

passion and obsession

never come free,

i found myself willing

breathing,

a breathless inspiration

bursting from my seams,

i gave you my words

and everything, thereafter

indescribeably still,

there is so much

that i want to tell you,

but i cant

and just now,

as i hesitate

i get a chill,

that feels like goodbye

i despair,

without tears

it's so hard to cry,

for yesterdays

gone by,

and if i

could go back,

i'd give you

what i failed to,

but i'm a fool, to wish

because we never

had the chance

to begin with,

as we were

wounded, hopeless

by romance,

victims of it's third degree,

desperate in our need

to seek out a love

that would set us free.

such beautiful and hearfelt words...very touching, as i wipe a tear from my eye..i sincerely hope that the words you have been unable to share..find you..find the ears of your other victim. searching for love to set us free... i guess that describes most of us, huh...romantic hearts...dreamers...learn many valuable lessons from one another. such as..how to feel and express emotions... how to accept that we are all beautiful...to someone, even if not to ourselves.. may someone elses perception become our own, so that the image in the mirror smiles back.
thank you for ...simply being you...it is always enough chris, always...even when it doesn't seem it.
best wishes to you always..take care and keep shining and sharing those words you have such a gift with.
love always
