I love you
In sorrow and change
Mirth days gone
Child sight strained
Grown now
Fire temper pain
Takes away brilliance
Leaves colors drained
Oh, my hands hold nothing
But turning, I still stay
In sorrow I now love you
And in loss live duller days.
I stand at its edge
While its powerful show
Comes to lap at the shore
With its ebb and its flow.
Sometimes it’s stilled;
Others unrest.
Quiet as it’s kept,
But lurking between
The in and out tide
Hides a force to be reckoned with.
And the sea calls my name
With a vigorous plow
Of violent winds
And words not shallow.
It thrashes its fists against the coast
And hisses a storm
And beckons me
Forward onto the surf-tormented shore.
“Sail on my wings,†it bellows within,
“And be free of your life of trivial things.
Come sail in the deep and breathe in the blue
For a day and a year or a century or two.
I am old, but can you not see
The likeness between you and me?
I crash and escape
While my mouth is agape,
As do you, who knows not what there is
To really see of me.â€
My humble tears
Fall like rain;
Away with all
Forgotten pain.
My memories
Are far and near
Amidst a liquid
Crystal clear
That is the air
That moves the tide;
The atmosphere
I hide inside.
He struggles with any chance to be normal
People only see him on the outside
The inside fighting to maintain control
No one sees the perfectness of the whole picture
The confusing stairway leading to a blank face
The mind is a beautiful thing to hold on to
Screaming inside waiting for the pathway to appear
His feelings I endure patiently
I hurt through him and with him
Always questioning the answer
When I thought you wouldn’t make it through
I was standing there
Waiting for you to fall
Think about me,
Just once in a while
During all those shows,
That will make you smile.
And I don’t mean,
Just the rock bands
I’m talking about,
Those with the tans.
I ask that you,
Don’t join in those games
And please don’t,
Get any names.
The only one,
That should be on your mind
Is the one at home,
That is basically blind.
From all the things,
That will go on up there
I have to be strong,
And not have a care.
I’m trying to believe,
And to trust
I do need your help,
And this is a must
This is hard on me and,
I know you know why
The hurt is so deep,
I sometimes still sigh.
So be faithful,
And be true
Not only to me,
But, also to you.
These next five days,
For you will be fun,
But, I’ll be wondering,
What has he done?
So, please don’t you lie,
And do tell the truth
For I can take it,
Though, I might not be couth.
Give me the respect,
That couples do share
Do what you want,
But, buyers beware!
I know that you love me,
I love you too
Don’t toss me aside,
Like some old shoe.
We’ve been through a lot,
I’ve been there for you
Through all those tough times,
With your work and your school.
I care so deep,
For this relationship
Let’s not have a Cadot,
Make it take a dip.
Think about me,
Just once in a while,
That alone,
Will make me smile.
