Whisper by ~mikeypain:iconmikeypain:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Romantic > Other Romance > Song


I whisper your name
Wonder if you can even hear me
Even though we're close
You're so far away
For my breath to reach
Something stuck between us
I cannot let you go
I know somehow I can beat this
I've gotta let you know

What can I do to make you see through
The lies that have held you down for so long
It's all I can do to smile and
Let you know everything is all right
Even though I've held on for so long
I know in the end I'm gonna fall

Locked in Purgetory
It's just the same tired story
With a different face
But the same tired voice
Calling out your name
I've been so scared
Don't push me away now
I've waited for so long
But now the time for waiting is all gone

What can I do to make you see through
The lies that have held you down for so long
It's all I can do to smile and
Let you know everything is all right
Even though I've held on for so long
I know in the end I'm gonna fall

Come watch me fall
Watch me fall
Watch me fall
And I scream out your name
Wonder if you hear me now
Or am I just too far away
Nevermind it now
We've come to far to just
Let go

Even though I've held on for so long
I know in the end I'm gonna fall
Further into you

Have you ever cared for someone so much that you let them remain happy....no matter how much it hurt you? And no matter what happened that your feelings grew stronger and it hurt even worse...I think this sums up how I feel right now.

that little piece sounded really good to me for some reason unbeknownst to me.

It's funny how I never got a good reaction from the person I wrote it for. It was a nice tip off that things wouldn't work. I'm glad that everyone who has seen it is able to appreciate it.

I know how that feels..
Most of my poems have been for/about persons, but they don't get it..
The say a hint is hard to take, and you don't take a hint when you don't want to..
