(2014)
I grew up in a house built in 1937 long before codes and regulations and sometimes
So much time passes without feeling a single thing that I think I would give anything
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
I see words screaming for attention etched in the lines of your face Let me look closer
I thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
Just when I get back on my feet you pass on by and I lose my footing Again
I have whispered your name into the air so many times it has become the breeze that blows
I’ve kept my eyes closed most of these past eighteen years because I find it just as dark
It must be a wednesday or a friday or any day at all for I am painfully aware of the wo… that consumes me
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
I awoke from a deep sleep and knew the reason was to write I love you
Forever seems like so long until I think of all the times spent waiting
I would write a sweet poem and title it with your name if I loved you at all
