Empty / Reflections
Empty
Though they wouldn’t see it
How could they?
They don’t see me
Windows to my soul are thickly boarded
But you,
You have found a way to permeate the threshold
And still, you can’t feel this weight
But you let me lean on you
And it’s all I ever needed
I feel you reach out to me
Touch my face and let me drop this heavy burden
I knew you could save me
You were all I ever needed
Now leave me to mend my wounds
With the remnants of your love, darling
I have to let myself know I’m real
Without you gone for a time
How can I know the difference?
I am still a ghost of myself
And they can’t see me
This one I just wrote in about 10 minutes time...and...well I guess I'm not too impressed with it...but I enjoyed writing it.
--
Still can’t believe
You love me this much
With one hand on my heart
You steady its beat
With the other on my face,
You calm my racing fears
And when you take your hands
To heed yourself
I lend mine to hasten your recovery
Still can’t believe
I love you so much
When I saw our reflections
Side by side
I knew we were happy
Something in their essence told me
Something in that dream world
Enveloped my soul
And now I feel whole
Still can’t believe
We found our dream world
Even amongst the ashes
I also kind of threw this one together...but I'm much happier with how it turned out.
Comments/criticism certainly welcome!
