There’s a feeling I get, only from you
My heart gives way to emotions
I never thought I would feel.

You come, and you go
Then you reappear again
I don’t know how much my body is willing to bear
But I know my heart will never fail.

Alone in my silence, my darkness,
Senses come alive
To wash over my body.
As images of distant memories
Filter my mind, to bring me to life...

Just to stop,
Just long enough to
Resuscitate my heart.

To feel you,
To hold you,
To give in,
Again and again.

Would I?
Dare I trust my own judgment.

I would.

Or will I falter?
Or forget?
All of the very reasons
Why I fell in constancy
With you...

There’s only one you,
One unsteady heartbeat,
One unsteady breath.

I fear I’ve come alive only to feel
For a rare few minutes.
To breathe life just to hurt,
Then ache after you’re gone.

But still,
I wait.
I will wait
For you.

To return to the path that brought you
To me at the very start,
I will wait.

I can and I will,
I’ll lie
And say it doesn’t hurt,
With a simple smile on my face.

Because I can’t breathe,
With you...
Nor without you.
