Black wings
Across
A
Tortured
Sky.
Deep breaths
Echo
Still,
In
My
Mind.
Winds blow
Through,
Like
The
Memory
Of
Your
Scent
On
My
Skin.
Face pale
&
Delicate,
Eyes
So
Dark
I
Can
Only
See
Me
In
Them.
Teeth bared,
Sharp
As
The
Words
That
Cut
When
You're
Not
With
Me.
Rose petals
At
My
Door,
The
Lingering
Taste
Of
You.
Sigh,
My
Savior,
&
Let
Me
Hear
Only
Peace,
Until
Your
Black
Wings
Surround
Me
Again.
Its been so long
Since I saw
You.
In the place
I spend most of
My time
Now,
Where the rest
Of the world
Lays it's
Head.
This is where
I have
Been.
I wondered some
Days,
If you were still
Out there,
In the place I always
Found you.
I thought
If I
Couldn't see
You,
Would you still
Be there.
My heart pounds,
Even now,
Thinking of
You.
Such a silly thing,
To think
That just the
Memory of your
Breath
Against my ear,
Would
Bring my resolve to
Make it without
You,
To it's
Knees.
Why have I gone so
Long,
Why have I waited to
See you.
When all I
Have to do,
Is close
My eyes
&
Know you would
Be there.
I don't know.
Maybe
It's the loss
Of others in our world
That knew you,
Shattered
That place in a way
I didn't know how
To resurrect.
To see you again,
Even though
You're the only
One
That stayed by my
Side
For so long,
Seeing you would
Have reminded
Me
Of the one
I would never see again.
And
I think
I
Just wasn't ready
Yet.
To see you now,
In this new
World,
With different
Lights
&
Shadows.
You look different
Than you used
To.
But I guess we all
Do.
I think I'm
Ready
To say
It's ok,
That I can see
The one who's always
Been
In my mind,
Visit
You in that place
Deep inside
Somewhere
That belongs
Only
To you
&
I.
And
Maybe not feel
So
Alone.
But I can't promise
How long I'll
Stay.
Or how well
I can be
This new
Me.
But
I'm ready to
Try.
Maybe that's
Good enough for
Now.
I'll be be
Waiting
For you,
As I always have,
Since
I can remember.
In
My
Dreams.
