I Can't See This!

I wouldn't expect your acknowledgment towards this unknown fact;

To share in me my world with you, so scared yet surprised I'm still intact;

I hear your voice and my heart starts pounding with a smile;

To believe in some altered force and that you were always worth my while.

I try to let go but you keep returning, roses in each hand;

To think I almost obliterated the time I felt so comfortable with a man...

I confess I'm no good, that you deserve more than what I can offer;

You've heard enough; deep in my heart I know you crave no other.

You leave me alone with no goodbye; no footsteps to track which way you went.

My depression grows deeper and I try my hardest to make these feelings unbend...

and I hold my hand close to the screen, trying not to worry

No other man can do what you do to my feelings, not even in a hurry.

Your voice rises through and lifts me up inside

Strangling hurt and pain as if they are going to die...

When you leave they creep back to haunt my dear soul;

You come back and their shadows play tricks swiftly dealing a single blow;

I cross my arms across my chest holding onto what you say

Giving me some support on another heart breaking day

Don't get mad at my words from last night, my dear love

For I know they are true though my mind is corrupt.

I stay on this partial line that sways and beaks apart

At the end I hear the beating of my heart

It's screaming your name, one syllable after another;

Echoing your voice, hoping it's not a blunder...

I see your name written on the walls of my hope and love

Lust sees it too and even all the words above...

I wonder why you're staying so close to me and all my weakness

I try to see it, I'm trying I'm trying...I can't see this...
