this day one year ago...wher these events unfolded...but indeed after this came more problems and more times we hung onto each other...till the connection was severed...along with my heart
the air was so heavy...my heart boomed
when you said those words you didnt want to say
that you think we should go our separate ways
tears cascaded down both of our faces
because we knew this is not what our hearts desired
holding each other...your lips found mine
raw love exhibited despite the protest of the mind
slef preservation, i think this was my heart's selfish motif
as the air pressed us so close together...so we could hear each other's heart beat
passion flows and penetrates deep into my soul
our eyes both cried but our hearts smiled
this was proof of our need for each other
the love, the drive, the intense feeling of worth
that just nearly got put beneath the earth
this proved that our love was deeper than some useless quarrel
and that no matter what our love would have prevailed
so she held me tighter...as i did her
and her eyes met mine with intense fire
almost lost in my pathetic sob i said "i love you"
she said "i love you too" and pressed even tighter
i looked down, the same time you looked up
eyes puffed up and swolen..but you never looked so beautiful
that picture, that image etched deep into my soul
two pathetic lovers and their battle to stay whole
two hours we spent...holding each other in that room
no words further spoken...conversation was spiritual
you eventually got up and opened the door
intense light hit our swolen eyes, but i could have never asked for more
you reached down and held my hand
symbolically affirming our union
then for the first time that day, i smiled

puffy eyes and smiles
that day, when we were alone in that roomthe air was so heavy...my heart boomed
when you said those words you didnt want to say
that you think we should go our separate ways
tears cascaded down both of our faces
because we knew this is not what our hearts desired
holding each other...your lips found mine
raw love exhibited despite the protest of the mind
slef preservation, i think this was my heart's selfish motif
as the air pressed us so close together...so we could hear each other's heart beat
passion flows and penetrates deep into my soul
our eyes both cried but our hearts smiled
this was proof of our need for each other
the love, the drive, the intense feeling of worth
that just nearly got put beneath the earth
