Ascertain pt4
Robert Carter Nov 2011
Now the truth became clear, and the feelings we held dear,
are completely sincere
But the trouble we seen, was just a premiere

He wouldn't go quietly, he'd do anything to spite me,
But she was in control finally,

Control he must maintain, so he tries to explain,
How he would refrain, his need to detain,
but his time had passed and her freedom is all she asked,

But he wouldn't go quietly, he'd do anything to spite me

You told him it was over, he still needed closure,
But in the dark we grew closer, this love wasn't over

How far are we willing to go, for this gift, we have been bestowed
I guess you'll have to keep reading, to see how it goes...

sometimes i get that way
Robert Carter Nov 2011
My words become boulders, impossible to move
sometimes i get that way

I look at only the things, I want to improve
sometimes i get that way

I'd rather spend my time, in solitude
sometimes i get that way

I don't always show my gratitude
sometimes i get that way

I'm productive and helpful
sometimes i get that way

I'm cautious and careful
sometimes i get that way

I'm lazy and useless
sometimes i get that way

I'm careless and clueless
sometimes i get that way

I'm happy and outgoing
sometimes i get that way

I'm closed off and grouchy
sometimes i get that way

I'm calm and collective
sometimes i get that way

I'm ill and aggressive
sometimes i get that way

I like to express my self, say what i need to say
I guess, sometimes i get that way!

The occasional visit and hope you restore
A gentle kiss on your lips, a feeling never felt before

I'm suffocating, as your hand touches mine
My heart is racing, as our eyes align

You slowly lean forward, our movements synchronise
Her kiss was more than anticipated, this is where our love originated

We never looked back and everyone became aware
Never knew something could become so obvious
Through a lingering stare

Our attraction has become, impossible to resist
Wrapped in each others arms, is where love exist

Forget the world and coexist, but to do that
There's a bit of a twist....

As the details are revealed, you'll see these actions can't be repealed
The danger was obvious, there would be no forgiveness

Love sees nothing, but feels all
No one could have predicted what would happen
With just one phone call

Feelings begin without warning
Taking its toll, on a heart until now
Had maintained all control

The years of loneliness, had become too much
She had forgotten the need, to feel that touch

She had made it this far and adapted to the worse
Come to grips with her life, that she called a curse

Closed off and concealed, never to be revealed
a dream of a life, that would never be appealed
but on that day, when time stood still
not knowing a dream was about to be fulfilled.... to be continued..

Robert Carter Nov 2011
For one heart to flourish, another must be broken
With words that were swore, to never be spoken

It's not how it was planned, and you're not gonna understand
But the indifference caused distance, in a heart built for resistance

But I had to be honest, I was just keeping my promise
I tried so hard to undue, the change my heart had been through

I knew it would get complicated, and swore to not get frustrated
But you were with him, I was alone, no way I could have known

How I would react, how easy it is to distract, a heart that isn't intact

Remembering your smile, its like a dream
Where everything isn't, what it seems
I sit and picture your beautiful face
And that warm feeling, i can't replace

The confidence that you often gave me
The way you love, oh so bravely
The wonderful mother you so naturally are
The way you sing, in the car

Your soft kiss, your warm touch
These are a few things, i miss so much

She's strong as can be, only the strong side you see
When you see her around, maybe shopping in town
She'll give you a smile, maybe wave once in awhile
How blessed you will be, when you're in her company

The care that she shows, the feeling that grows
Down deep in your soul, till you lose all control
But what you don't see, is how hard it can be
To fight back all those tears
And the strength that she needed
To make it through all these years

But she made it through,
Even as the pain grew, as the days ensued
Even though she didn't want to, she puts on that smile
Looking at her you wouldn't know, she's not gonna disclose
How she really feels in her heart, she needs a fresh start
Now out of the blue, as if on cue, fate walks in

Not knowing what has occurred
Without saying a word, she makes her way towards fate
Now looking in his eyes, it came as a surprise
all the feelings that arise, true love could actually be real

Now don't jump to conclusions, it could be an illusion
this feeling is so confusing but she's gotta follow her heart

Now what comes next, your guess is good as mine, I'll let you know..
In due time!
