This is for the one I love....

Even though he doesn't know it yet.... :)

Head Bowed

I feel you in all my moments

As I lament my choice

To be silent

To be weak

To do what's right for everyone else

While I kill myself day by day,

Slitting my throat not by inches, but

By miles....

All at once...

On the day I loved you,

The idea of your mind

Your insight

The idea of you

It

Overpowered me

My weakness was wrapped up in you,

And all doubt was coupled

And spent

In itself

Vanity far gone

Ecstasy reaching

And love rescinding

At last

To be understood.

You come

Head bowed,

While my hands reach

For home,

At last...
