"Whispering My Name"

Your scent still lingers on my coat.

And your eyes still haunt my dreams.

The words i read that you had wrote.

Are now unraveling my life's seams.



I still feel your breath upon my cheek.

Our hands gripping each others so tight.

Blurred by beer we were both so weak.

And we gave into it for just one night.



But i admit that i was too scared.

And finally i pushed you away.

Not while drunk and not there.

I tried to explain with nothing to say.



I sat staring into your eyes of blue.

I could feel myself beginning to sink.

There was nothing that i could do.

As i tried to will myself to think.



I tried to hide the sadness in my eyes.

But i know you saw it all the same.

I tried to silence all my hidden cries.

And then you whispered my name.



Pulling myself back from the dark.

I saw the tears hidden behind the blue.

The stars had suddenly became stark.

I wanted so much to scream "I Love you".



But instead I sat before your burning stare.

And fired my own intensity right back.

So much passed between that silent air.

As each of us decided not to act.



I felt it that night as something died.

And the tears in my eyes remain.

But only two escaped while i cried.

Crying cause you were whispering my name.
