Echoes ...

** This is just poetry, nothing to do with the current wonderful relationship i'm in ** :)

The silence in the Night deafens me,

The aroma of candles surrounding like a sea.

I wonder how I’ve survived all these years,

In this big world alone with my fears.

In a hurry, in a rush, day after day,

I’ve walked on believing I’d be okay.

I’ve never noticed how empty I've been,

Until it all amasses, my patience worn thin.

Like a shadow of what has been, following me,

Perhaps I never truly want to be free.

I want to continue on loving ,

Remembering love is a piece of heaven.

Smiles that carried me through the days,

Sleeping away the mornings, the usual lazy ways.

The warmth of the sea breeze late at night,

And how being with one made things seem alright.  

Sometimes i wish the past years were a dream,

But then I'd never have seen your eyes twinkle with that gleam.

I keep thinking that everything will be okay,

And I work the hours through, until my worries feel so far away.

Things are not as joyful as they used to be,

This love no longer sets me soaring free.

This neglect just seems to ensettle rage,

The book I once wrote no longer has any page.

The days are floating by as fluid as water,

I want to believe it will all get better.

You flow by like an untamed stream,

sometimes I just want to scream.

Will you realize in time before things die,

Or will you be too late, realizing after the last goodbye.

Maybe we should stop this game of baiting.

There are much more important things waiting,

Lets Just be free, free to achieve those dreams,

Let's live, let's achieve by all means.

Where are the times we once had where we smiled,

And laughed uninhibited and wild.
