Bent Words

July 29, 2004

What neglect of mind allowed my soul to seek his heart

'Just to say good night,' replaces what adoration I would not impart

He will not look past the reason I give in search of the truth

When, in all honestly and grace, that is all I've lived up to

What passion overrules pride

When at death's door I reside

Watch the hours as they without empathy pass

Whoever you are, I promise the finish you'll find yourself last

I know what I am about

When they don't seek me out

What fond moments I'll carry as I watch him wait for me to let him go

Never holding in his heart all of the feelings that I've known...
