With my head resting against the wall
I gaze at the barren space before me
please embrace me for one last time
without your love my heart is empty.
I wish I could have stopped you
when you were walking out that door
I wish I could have pulled you closer
and never let you leave anymore.
Your eyes dared me to love you
and oh, darling......I did!
You didn't cry before you walked away
but I could see the pain your smile hid.
As I sit here alone my love,
with my hands wrapped around my knees,
my heart aches to go back to you,
silently it screams "stay! don't go, please".
Close your eyes one last time,
and hold me like we aren't broken, love.
Please kiss me this one last time,
and tell me you're still mine, my love.
I search my dreams every night,
with the hope of running into you.
I may breathe for the world to see...
but I died the day I bid you adieu.
-B. Sinjini.
