I Remember

Yes, I can recall
Yes, I do recall
The memory of...
You
Oh yes I have remembered
Sometimes I drift away
To a place
Where time does and always will
Stand still
Yes, I often do...
Think of you

I remember you
With every single one of my senses...
Strong is the smell of summer
Blooming
It swirls around me
The sensation of the sun
Warming my face
Clearly, I envision you

Someday, Somehow

Someday, Somehow,
You'll remember me
And wonder where I've gone
You'll regret the times
You took me for granted
Want to fix what you did wrong
But I won't run to you
With open arms
I'll no longer seem to care
The feelings I have for you now
Will be hidden away somewhere
I'll love you still,
I probably always will
Yet I'll turn my back
And walk away
Because I will be much stronger
Than I am today
I won't go back to loving you
No matter how much
I may want to

Rock Bottom

It is
So lonely here
Sometimes I feel
Like I can't breathe
At other times
I simply don't want to
Breathe anymore

When I stand before you
I despise the way
You look at me
Like I am still
Who I used to be
When you of all people
Know that I am not
The distance between us
Full of so many things
Don't think I forgot

It's draining pretending

Believe

He is a whisper away
In a breath of fresh air
He is wherever you are
And everywhere
He travels the distance
Of a long stretch of road,
And throughout the meadows
To where the streams unfold
He is above the treetops,
Beyond the mountains and the clouds
In the quiet of the calm before a storm
Yet with the thunder, so loud
Soft with a light, slow snowfall
Or harsh with the sudden onslaught
Of the rain
Before you ever speak of them,
He knows your worries,
And understands your pain
He is the beloved Almighty,
Constant and everlasting

You

You disappoint me
Time after time
Instance after instance
I walk behind
Rather than alongside you
The way I once did
I have been wondering why

You talk around the issues
That constantly surround us
You look beyond the answers
That escape you
When you allow them to go
Unrecognized and ignored
I don't understand why

You move through my life
As if I never wait
For your arrival
As though I don't miss you

Internal Photograph

Give me your hand
Follow me
To where you and I still exist in memories
Long since passed
Yet far from forgotten
It's as if only a moment ago...
We Were

Close your eyes
Imagine
Awakening within a dream
That never ends
The paths that our emotions paved
As clear as crystal footprints
In the sand
Let's sink deep into one another
Until we can no longer define ourselves
Like we used to
When there was simply...
Us

The Moments After

In the moments after you had gone
It seemed as though time had
Gathered together
To stand beside me,
Perfectly still
Waiting expectantly for me
To cry or scream
To speak or just to breathe
My first breath alone
Without you
Lonliness poured itself empty into me
Filling all of the spaces
Sorrow had missed

In the moments after you had gone
The world was suddenly strange
And cold
All that I once knew to be true
Became secrets untold
Noises whispered softly around me

Magical Love

You sound like
The rush of an Angel's wings
Taking flight
When you speak
Or the twinkling of wind chimes
Off in the distant night air
Heard, but unseen

You are like
Morning dew
In the afternoon
Or random raindrops
In rare moments
On a soft and sunlit day

You feel like
The softest petal
On a newly bloomed rose
When you whisper
Against my ear

The Explanation

I tried to
Be like you
I really did try
To make you proud
So many things
Got in my way
Then the chaos and confusion
Became too loud
When one exists
In a world of doubt
Unmet needs
A tainted soul breeds
The emptiness inside
Begins to grow
Raging pain and
Sorrow flow
Been trying ever since
To fill that hole
Fighting against the urge
To just let go

When

When.. I close my eyes
And picture you,
Emotions swirl
Painting pictures in my mind
Of flawless art

When... You wrap your arms
Around me,
All else fades away
Until the only sound remaining
Is the beating of our hearts

When... I gaze into your eyes,
At once, I am love blind
It's as if I'm staring into
The rings of light around the sun

When.. We are alone
Melting into one another,
Our love binds and blends us together
