In The Silence

By Petra Creffield



In the silence... He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not Tick tock, tick tock No more cradle to rock N roll with you baby If you will He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not Silly little girl dreams Into stormy seas screamed Prayers of lust and hope Smashed into shingle shores He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not Knock knock knock On the doors of denial Break through into blinding white light Retreat to all too familiar shadowlands Is safer there He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not The despair of true desire exists within Burning up and itching my skin Bursting my mind with fusion fantasies Impossible to fulfil He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not Building an ache, a need to know If this feeling will ever be allowed to flow All over your skin snuggled up and deep within Your breathe He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not Now both become true and don’t know what to do Instead stay here, not touching the phone, not waiting for you To come through Just in case. He loves me He loves me not He loves me He loves me not Petra Creffield 2007
