It's all too fast
I can't find the words
To stop the floods
To stop the pain
It's all going too fast
A headlong rush forward
A headlong rush pushed by the wind
A headlong rush against time
It's all too fast
Will I find the tempo to stop
Will I find the tempo to land
Will I find the tempo to let go
It's all too fast
And I draw you to me
Like a whirlwind of faith
Am I your king?
It's all too fast
You resist
You follow your own rhythm
You don't fall apart
It's all too fast
I'm taking you with me
You don't do as I do
You slow down
Maybe you'll...
It's all too fast
& You're dragging your feet
Will you help me relax?
Will you help me slow down?
It's all too fast
You touch me
You embrace me
You kiss me
Things don't go too fast anymore
I’m sorry I asked you to stand on that bridge with me and hold my hand. I’m glad you didn’t jump when I did. It put the perfect amount of distance between us when I finally shattered on the rocks at the bottom below..
An endless war I fight all alone. But don’t judge me so harshly. One day, you will fall off the edge of a bridge all your own.
you died and i desperately need to tell you how it feels. i need you to hold me upright while i show you this hole that exists now in my heart and the emptiness that swallows my soul. i need you to hold me while i cry out for you, and scream at god and ask him why. you died and you are the only one who can get me through this.
your name will always bring with it a soft sort of sadness..
that falls around my shoulders & embraces me like a blanket. Or a hug..
a thousand memories of your moonbeam smile. And starlit eyes. Filtered through layers of nostalgia..
I’ll remember what was..
but it will be all the what could have beens…
that will cause me to swallow the tears until they form oceans within me..
and perhaps when I’m alone one might slip from my eyes & onto my pillow..
as I wish it was your face I was gazing at in the near darkness. Long lashes on your cheekbones…
maybe I wouldn’t feel so alone..
maybe I would be happier then..
there will always be an empty hole in me shaped exactly like you
and you will never know.
