A Shadow of Doubt

By Monkei

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You're pulling away again... What's going on? Everything was going so perfectly... Did I do something wrong? It's your walls this time, not mine, That are blocking the road, They've gone up again... What did I do? If you'd tell me what it was, I'd fix it you know... I feel like I'm losing you again, But I'm afraid to let you go. Everything was wonderful today. Or so it seemed. I don't know what to do, When you won't tell me these things. I know I can't make it go away, And I know I can't make it right. I just wish, I could hold YOU tonight. You worry me these nights, When I know you're alone. I hate to go to sleep, Knowing the pain in your soul. I just wish you'd tell me, What's on your mind. I'd feel much better, Knowing your just fine. But I can't make you speak, Just like you couldn't make me. So I'll sit here and write, With these tears on my cheeks. I'll take a shaky breath, And let it back out, And hope you're ok, With a shadow of doubt.I'm not very sure about the way it reads. Some of the stanzas don't fit the form I used very well, but I got what I wanted to say out so.... Dedicated to A. Written April 8th, 2002 © on Apr 09 2002 07:50 AM PST, Katie   0 • 1
