156.

Forever


I know I’ll never be the One

I know I’ll never have His heart

To love and to hold and to keep as my own

And forever love through lifelong storm


I know I’ll never hold Her close

And keep Her safe through fears unknown

To keep and to hold and to love Her forever

Heal Her heart and wipe away the tear


In silent dream my heart will lie

With a thousand scars for every tear

Thrown blooded red at chances passed

In screaming dark until the last

155.

So


So close I can almost touch him

So close I can almost feel his breath

So far I cannot count the distance

So far I’ll never close the gap


So soft a smile it breaks my heart

So sweet a laugh I cannot bear

So dead inside I’ll never live

So forever stay in silence kiss

Skype


There’s a camera, a speaker, a pad for all my words

A picture, a voice and a smile to melt my heart

A sparkling conversation that penetrates my soul

To spring from deep my darkest fears and save me from my cold

153.

Silence


Screaming dark devoid of life

That thunders down from stars above

Those helpless dreams of shattered gold

Lie battered, bruised in icy folds
