[incomplete, August 15, 2006]
You’re so far above me my neck strains to
see
That face of yours constructed in perfect
harmony
My arms dare not reach to be in your
embrace
My lips dare not try to find yours for a
taste
Your perfection gives rise to my stutters
and shakes
Your presence…just watching you…all I can
take
I’m so undeserving of someone like you
Yet still I dream on, if only you knew
Every moment with you, every minute and
hour
I’d graciously go back in time to devour
Just a fan among fans, competing was rough
I still can’t believe I was worthy enough
For the kisses I stole, for the smiles and
laughs
For making my heart beat a million times
fast
But I take what I can and I took all you
spared
Convincing myself there was no way you
cared
But a kiss on the forehead, a squeeze on my
knee
Made your indifferences so hard to believe
Your hand was all mine and you spoke in my
ear
Whispering things that I needed to hear
Now miles apart still I wonder, what if?
An angel could swoop down to give me a lift
To the level on which you will always reside
ReplyDeleteAnd give ease to the follies that trouble my mind
For without you I'm broken and somehow unwhole
Regardless of the heartache that to me you sold
I'd give up most anything to again have you near
But I know that can't happen, so so long my dear
I wish you the best wherever you may be
As I look back on the days when you reigned above me
