Stay with me...

By dalphon

 
I strangle in this noose,
hanging from your whispers.

Lifted from the depths,
by the caress of your fingers.

Shoved off a cliff,
by your morbid self-loathing.

Bound and determined are we,
to utterly destroy each other.

In sunchronicity we both speak,
"I could not have found a stranger lover."

I pull you in,
You push away.
A cruel game,
we've come to play.

I make you want me till you can't resist,
and you pour all of your being,
Into an Everlasting Kiss.

You don't look back,
As you walk away,
But I know you hear me,
Pleading for you to stay.

You tell me not to cry,
"We will be together, before we die."

I know you speak the truth,
Of that I have no doubt.
I would gladly wait to hold you,
untill we are both on the way out.

This one hurt to write, it's not entirely accurate and I think it is me picking on myself.

    ...this is a sad depiction of uncertainty & dilemma: can't stay, can't walk away...

    I am glad you enjoyed it. I have a thing for strong endings, as in my life it seems endings have the most powerful affect on me.
