I stare into a candle flame
Flickering side to side we’re the same.
I love you with all that I am, but I miss
Pieces of us that left the world behind in a kiss.
I’m ecstatic in your accomplishments
Still I need that emotional deep down love since,
I’m without you for so long
I get depressed and something feels wrong.
Like the piece we aligned making us finally complete
Was stripped away leaving room for defeat.
I want our bond to stay strong forever
For us to have enough to survive every endeavor…
Life has to give
Always treasuring the kids.
I’m wistful of warm caresses behind my ear
The fantasies we used to share.
Hearing soft whispers following kisses on my neck
Your lips moving down my cleavage slow pecks.
The love that makes one so happy they cry…
Forget the bar remember you and I!
Pillow fights, Bowling, Laughter and holding.
Do you miss any of this?
How can I change the way you think?
And pull you away from that diseased drink.
Its liquid poisons your veins,
And causes worry and emotional pain.
Alcohol has taken so much from me, us
I can’t watch you deteriorate I love you to much.
I know it’s only a couple of days a week,
But it changes you…You want to fight every asshole you meet.
I’d do anything to open those brown eyes
Come back to me, "We’ll make butterflies".
No amount of money or gifts can make me happy
I just yearn for every dimension of you to want me.
Without all of you this is nothing.
I feel like a bird with one wing
Trying so hard to fly, but I fall
Storms blow me back and to you I call.
Do you hear me?
Try to mend me?
Or just go? Leaving no emotions shown.
Thinking oh she’ll be here when I decide
To even out life’s tide.
Look into my eyes what do you see?
I see someone waiting.
You’ve come so far what’s another step?
Promises I wait for from the day we met.
When you’re out do I cross your mind?
Or from the bottle is my memory left behind?
While I sit in our bed
I recall the loving things you’ve said.
You said I was your Best Friend,
And love is what my heart sends.
A warm hand upon my face
Take me to our special place.
Just you and I
Together we’ll fly.
