Distance And Love

By VampireGirl

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I asked you to stand up, for something you thought you lovedBut you didn't.I offered you the chance to have me foreverBut you gave it up.I hope you learned a lot from me,i'm sure you learned more then you believe.I may not be worth anything to you, But one day you will sing,and hear my voice, coming through your mouth.And the tears that run down your face, and the clouds over your eyesare of me.And when the clouds blow in, ill be miles awayBut year after year, Ill come back to the same placejust to remember, your face, and all the memories we made.And you blame me because we never had the chance to meet,But you never took the first step, And all I asked of youwas to hold on to me. you opened your arms and let the wind drag meaway from you. And for the fact that I held on for three years so tightly to youShould of made you see, That you meant so much to me,our hearts matched, When my heart stopped, yours did to,When I softly whispered I loved you, you heard it too.I wish these feelings were not lost, But they will always be safe in meBecause my memory will never dim, or fade.And a year from now, I hope you will look for me,I will be here with open arms, and looking for youBut just this ONCE I will not come searching for you.And I hope, I will be the cloud over your heartAnd the sadness in your eyes, And when we finally meet. Ill be the moonlight over the skySo it won't matter what state we are in. Written October 10th, 2001 © on Oct 10 2001 03:13 PM PST, Shelly   0 • 8
