Aimée Mar 2024
There and gone
But not for too long

Just enough space to change
Not enough to be estranged

Enough to grow in different ways
Not enough to forget our yesterdays

Just enough to heal from hurts
Not enough for this to lose it's worth

At least this is my hope and belief
That we can walk together, you and me.
I hate the space we need to heal
But we need it just the same
Aimée Mar 2024
I love you enough to be honest
Even when it's hardest
And to let you close when I'm weakest
Though I'd rather you not see this
Because you've come and you've stayed
Through the blackest nights
And the longest days

I love you enough to have listened
With judgement suspended
And to push you to grow
And hold you when you're low
I love you enough to see your demons
And not see you differently
Because you really aren't them

I'll love you with my words
Until you believe what you've heard
And when my words aren't up to *****
When they don't say enough
I'll have my actions speak
And pick up the trail
Where my words ceased

I was alone for so long
I feared I wasn't capable of real love

Until you

Now I worry I'll never find that again

My world is washed in grey
A place where once there was color
My world became this way
When I gave up on what was sure

Because it's people that give life meaning
And I've lost enough that it's bleeding
Losing love, and joy, motivation, and needing
I'm trapped alone in the grieving

Heartbreak to world
Looks like a puddle you step in
Until it's you that steps in
Then your soul is drowning
While your body plays pretend
You howl on the inside
But with out, you grin

Aimée Mar 2024
I don't how you traveled the space
That exists between us now
You left no footsteps in your wake
Or maybe your stride was far too great

But we still talk you and I
At a time that others trade for dreams
I tell you of how my days go by
And you show me the stars in your sky

We find ways our nights to fill
You working and listening
While I sit and talk on my window sill
Fighting the exhaustion eating at my will

Because dawn breaks soon
And the day's needs are close
Goodbye until the sky's maroon
I'll miss you today my man in the moon
Aimée Mar 2024
Please tell me God
Is there really an end
To this hell I'm trapped in?

How long do I watch
Helpless to aid her
As she faced her monsters?

When will he be
Delivered, free
From this maladie?

Why does love mean
Eternal secondhand suffering
And yet a refusal to stop hoping?
