more than waiting
By whisperer
i watch you as you're waiting, merely waiting
it's my turn to be the ghost eyes that follow
humming that slow melody that i think you might dream to
at least thinking through
my dreams touch reality in ever closing circles
no longer deigning to play these games
these games, if they're just games, no longer interest me
seriously
i'd rather it be larger than life, than just a broken image of itself
my black lines are reaching out my love
where are your red
coming to a stop
all those holes i fell through
it was always the same on the other side
i'm continualy looking in your eyes
when i can see them
when you look at me
i've landed beside what you call you mangled body
it doesn't look mangled to me
only roughed up by the contually dragging scores of life's necessities
and i wish i could hear your song
can i take your hand
perhaps lift you up a bit
maybe even show you a little more than the fragile pleasantries that rule
our dying world
no longer as a pigment, or as the cricket
softly chirping in your ear
not even as the whisperer
leaving little thoughts you paid for in pennies
it's been a while since those
i want those answers
i really do
i dont think ive ever really moaned a name...whispered it perhaps
nobody drowns in my "orbs in reverence" i always seem to be left gasping
grasping for something when i tear my eyes away from yours
i hid it well.....better than i should have i think
and now i'm waiting, watching you wait for something
and i've known this for quite sometime
that wasn't hypothetical
you know this
and i know what i'm waiting for at last love
took me awhile but i came around
you

At the beginning of this, I wasn't too sure I wanted to continue reading. As my eyes slipped farther and farther down the page, however, my heart began skidding along in my chest...

and at the end, I felt so out of breath that I might have fooled someone into believing I'd just run a thousand miles. Wonderful write. *Evangel*
