Poems
Aug 2011
I live a half life
I live a half life
Hung up, on the thought of you
Every moment passing blurs
I don’t know what to do
Ever since I heard your laugh
And lost myself within your eyes
No one else has touched my soul
You’re are my truth, my life’s a lie
I cannot keep you from my mind
Fading nights, to day, tonight
I look to stars and think of you
I am no longer ruled by light
Lost, I follow all your signs
You are my night, you are my day
And the beauty of the world depends
On each and every word you say
If you whisper what I want to hear
Black clouds can crush me from the sky
You're beautiful, the day is clear
It’s clear for miles, and I know why
If you leave me wondering
Grey skies and rain are growing old
If I think that you have gone
The sun can shine, but I am cold
The thoughts I have of holding you
They blind and burn with ecstasy
The thought of you within my arms
It hides from view all else I see
*
My life’s been lost, and halved too long
I’ll take the highs but at what cost?
The lows prove optimism wrong,
And what of everything I’ve lost?
So **** stupid's how I feel
Have I let this last too long?
From when we met until this day?
Is anything we had, now gone?
There were reasons that I hesitated,
Left you alone to work things out
You didn’t mean so much to happen,
But now my mind is plagued with doubt.
I want to fill my life with you
And let you know I need you here
But if I have to let you go
At least an empty glass is clear…
So this is it
I fell for you
And fall each day
And I don’t know,
how good we’d be
But either way,
I have to see… And you should know.
2006 * then * This poem is about obsession.
