I see you most days, it warms my heart A wondrous happy time I watch you throughout the day Wishing you would look my way and smile You Brush against me as you walk past Our hands touching A forbidden Love Few know of us, nobody should know Then that fateful day That can never be turned back I did the right thing; I was silent and walked away I left, leaving my heart with you
I am broken
2:Facade The smile, the laugh a wave of the hand, Nothing more than the hearts facade The smiling face, not showing the pain, The pain, the pain, Shield me from the pain Years of hidden pain Deadening my heart Building barriers, layer upon layer Shielding my heart, keep out the pain More layers upon more layers, Until the heart appears dead No hint of external emotion Cold and insensitive as the stone like layers there to protect it
I am lost
3:Redeemed
You came from another time, another place Our first meeting, we laughed, something stirred You cascaded over and through me cutting to my very soul Like an irresistible unstoppable force of nature Shattering and rending my barriers Emotional defences wiped away in a fleeting moment My heart now defenceless, raw, laid bare before you Fully exposed and at your mercy I dare to show emotion and love again I now choose to live, love and even risk loosing... Rather than just exist I rejoice in life
