I'm Your Prisoner

Sherry Bach © 2013

My insides ache for the touch of your hand

For your lips to once again be playful with mine

Feeling your arms around me

I cannot forget you

My heart is hardly capable of containing the emotion of missing you

It consumes me

I must know and yet I can't know

If you miss me at all

A barrier between must be broken

A curtain parted

Before knowledge is known

It's all over but the waiting

It's all over but the guessing

It's either over or it's not

Please stop the madness

Stop the longing

In my soul, in my being

Keeping me just this side of dying

Killing me with torture of your memory

Over and over

There is no escape

I'm your prisoner within myself
