From Within the Heart

From Within the Heart

Deep, inside

Pain, suffering

Loss, emptiness

love, hatred

Underneath the setting sun

I can feel your breath on my cheek

As though it were always there

As though its ready to fade

What are these words you whisper to me?

Why can't I understand?

Is it my blind love for you?

Or is it something untrue?

I lean my face into your palm

but I can't feel anything

I want to be able to live strong

but I can't without you

Underneath the waxing moon

I wait as you sit quietly

Contemplating....something...

What is it that's wrong with you?

I lean forward to touch your skin

But its cold and tough and pasty

Where is your heartbeat now?

Why are you sitting so still?

I stand and wait for your spirit

To guide me through this mess

There is nothing I can do for you

Only our everlasting song remains

Underneath the rising sun

I watch as you disappear

Forever gone from my warm embrace

This is all that we had here

Birth...Life....Death...

It is all only a beginning of a beautiful song. 

I dedicate this series:

From Within my Heart to you.
