A Glimpse

Unfinished sentences, Untold whispers

That's all that's left of the pieces now,
Boundaries set, Hearts desires buried deep,
Is it not the end you wanted to allow?

Chance upon chance I give you,
Go on, break down my walls and find me,
But is it uncertainty that leaves you at my door?
Or was I a fool to think you were ever knocking.

You held my heart in your palm once,
Now you just pretend to be a stranger,
Will you ever even know the power you have over me?
Always waiting for a word, wrapped around your little finger.

Your presence still calms my heart,
Your voice melts my every reason, will you ever learn.
No self-respect you must think, what is she?
A pathetic doormat, no more your concern.

Everyone begs me to forget,
Leave, they all tell me nothing new,
You gave me moments of delirious happiness,
and all the pieces of my heart you cut into

All I still want to do is hug your pain away,
When I know your heart hurts.
It’s so obvious to everyone else,
You being oblivious makes it even worse.

I'm afraid love, that I'll end up eternally waiting,
on this side of the door, gasping for air, 
For that unspoken word, a sign that you still care, 
losing the little I have of you again, that I can not bear.

Every cell in my body longs for you, I want you,
I need you close, whatever little way,
Maybe, as you say, We were never fated,
But please, please stay?

Hold me close, just this once, once more, 

This love is like a fever, always longing, 

For a moment make this ache in my heart stop, 

Then I can go back to my miserable life of wanting.

But, everything you do, everything you don't say,
speaks more than words ever will, yes, I must obey,
I don't know if it is my place any longer, 

You never will say, so I will keep away.

I can't ever hate you, how can I?
You are not even mine to miss anymore,
I will not ask again, I felt loved,
A glimpse, more than what most people wait a lifetime for.
