I feel I'm stuck outside your heart Only a window to peek through Glass is smudged and ***** Limiting view But from what little eyes can make out Appears that you are asleep Begin to worry my presence A gift not good enough to keep I wish I heard sounds of you breathing The night's silence hits hard Slicing deeper than freshly sharpened blades  Caught off-guard As if on cue-starts to rain Descending eagerly from the sky Wait in wet clothes for you to wake up Widening each weary eye Winds of uncertainty blow a bit stronger Hinting future unseen Daybreak an eternity away Forced suspension in dismal scene Unanticipated impatience For mornings golden glow Familiar warmth expected to emerge Your shoulder is still cold as snow My hopes eventually are destroyed Denial ripped like a band-aid Glance directly at me standing there It's as if there is an invisible barricade Your expression easy to read Written on face loud and clear No denying you are aware of my position You pretend not to notice I'm here

Loud And Clear
I feel I'm stuck outside your heart Only a window to peek through Glass is smudged and ***** Limiting view But from what little eyes can make out Appears that you are asleep Begin to worry my presence A gift not good enough to keep I wish I heard sounds of you breathing The night's silence hits hard Slicing deeper than freshly sharpened blades  Caught off-guard As if on cue-starts to rain Descending eagerly from the sky Wait in wet clothes for you to wake up Widening each weary eye Winds of uncertainty blow a bit stronger Hinting future unseen Daybreak an eternity away Forced suspension in dismal scene Unanticipated impatience For mornings golden glow Familiar warmth expected to emerge Your shoulder is still cold as snow My hopes eventually are destroyed Denial ripped like a band-aid Glance directly at me standing there It's as if there is an invisible barricade Your expression easy to read Written on face loud and clear No denying you are aware of my position You pretend not to notice I'm here
