Shudder

Folder: 
The Mushy Stuff

the thought make me shudder.

like a breeze after being caught in the rain.

shudder in the sense of shivering with longing as you cross my mind.

breeze because you're untouchable unable to be caught or held down.

rain like the tears that stream down my face as i write this to you.

i wonder if you think of me unending like i you?

thinking that causes sleepless nights and haunted dreams.

haunted like my heart because you took the life out of it when you left but still an inkling of hope.

the kind of hope that floats not out at sea but ideally within me.

the hope that gets deeper when i look into your eyes.

i pray that one day you will see with your heart,not with your mind but with your soul.

i'm so afraid.

afraid to leave, afraid to go,afraid to turn my back and walk away.

afraid of the what if.

what if you finally stood still?

what if you reached for me and i wasn't there?

what if i lost my mind and character waiting for someone who probably is a figment of my imagination?

what if you never even cared?

what if i didn't either?

all of this is hard to gather, fathom, and contemplate.

for my knight in shining armor i wait,in hope that he'll save me.

at this time i'll settle for a horse drawn carriage.

this is harder than i thought it would be.

shuddering love and misery.
