Slip Away : A heart breaking poem

If time would show me grace

I’d lend you my praise

Show you a better place

But it’s not the same any more

Never been the same ever since you walked away

I try living over it

I try...I cry and I fail to fly

I can never stop these burning tears

Over the crowd I see your face

On the walls..In my dreams

I reach out

But only to touch your shadow

I hold you near in my dreams

Singing you your angel lullaby

All I know is you near

Close enough to kiss away your tears

But it’s all shadows in the dark

It was only yesterday

That all I had was you

I had you in my arms

Kissing your tender lips under the blossoms

Feeling your warm breath on my chest

Tenderness that I cherish in blurry vision

It hurts so much to sing our song

To dance our tune

You so close in my heart

If I can touch you once more

Look into your eyes

And whisper into your ears

That I love you

Never letting you go for a minute

But you are gone

Slipped away breaking my heart

I am weak and bleak

But I can’t break your spell on me

You all that’s burning in my heart

The only distant star in a dark sky

I am weary

And my insanity is hanging on a thread

With my vanity hiding in shame

Now my world seems so cold

All I have known

Was it was me and you

Ours a world to cherish

Now it’s over

And I nurse the burning tears

If I could

I would

But it’s a sad good bye

It’s only a faded memory

Million words fail

And I walk away frail

A prisoner to your love

Maybe time will help me win this game

And flee from this blame

For I let you slip away
