When in that moment I feel your pain,

I always want to forget,

I want to ignore your pain,

hoping it might go away,

with your tears,

go away from me today.

~

I want to bring you back to me though,

every time I see your eyes,

any time I hear your gasps,

that bring me back to you,

I want to be with you,

by your side, with you all the time.

~

If maybe I could somehow decide upon

what day seems more real than the other,

what opportunity,

what moment when your elegance,

speaks directly to my heart,

maybe that is the way I can see you.

~

In this frame of mind today,

I can see you all over again,

spiritual in your manner,

the delight of every moment,

when the pain has left your eyes,

when the pain has left your eyes.
