TEARS IN A JAR

Folder: 
JOURNAL #19

the sea that resides in my soul

was never meant to be snow

just as I , in my weakest moment

never

not even once

intended to let you go

though its frothy white waves

beckon to me

'Tell Him'

forgive me I was wrong

as love is but a promise of

such incredible warmth

too unexpectedly set free

my need of you was and still is

far greater now

than any prior need I merely thought

I had

to be correct in any such way of thinking

my heart can hardly stand to beat alone

anymore

lost is she without your touch

watch me carefully now

as I murder the last of my pride before you

then listen to my heart

as it bleeds out my ardent love for you

all over this lovely book's page

must I beg

if so

so be it



then note that I shall do and as gracefully

as I know how

how would you like me to begin?

perhaps with

please__________________!

I was such a__________________.

Can you ever____________________?

How can I make it____________________?

you are my_________________________.

Hows that for a start? ................
