~

I am trying all I could to breakdown the wall
I’ve built over the years
With a desperate wish that I could
Let you in

I am here… just reaching out
Just waiting for you, although I am
Now weak to barely raise a hand

If only I could tell you to go on,
Just stay here where you are
And love me

If only I could let you
Know that I am waiting for you
To catch me

If only I could’ve told you to wait
Just for a while
If only you could hear my heart
Crying out for your name…
Please stay, please take me,
out of this place,
Hold me and never let me
Slip away ever
Again.
