Many times I don't know why
I feel like crying
But I know
That I would be lying
If I were to give
All the blame to words unspoken
Because reason says
That there will always be
Thoughts
Ideas
That never make it to you
And this I suppose
Is what is heartbreaking
Everyday that goes by
Time keeps flying
Infront of my eyes
Taunting me
Telling me that seconds
Fly by
Without you
So I sit here
Pen in hand
Writing the words
That I cannot say
So that one day
You will see everything
One day I'll be able to tell you everything that I could every want to say, but unfortunately that day is not today.

As I walk along
The path of weeping willows
For one last time.
I break my vow,
And hope
For the first time
That I will be attacked
By the poisonous drops
That slide down from their branches.
The drops that I have avoided for years,
Because if they touch me
I will burn slowly
Falling where I stand.

I hope and hope and hope again
That they will attack me.
For if they do
I will stay here forever,
And this love
That I have come to know
Has brought me to a point
Where being here
Void of life
Is better than living
And leaving.

However,
It is not as simple
As being tapped
By a few drops.
For you see,
I would have to be drenched
In their poison.
And while I have come close before,
This time
I was barely sprinkled upon.
There was not even enough discomfort
To equal the agony
I will feel when I leave.
It seemed
As if the willows
Heard my wish,
And decided
To leave me with more pain
Than their poison
Could ever give me.
This was written in reference to the first time I had to leave the love of my life.
