Indesisive Woman

I have stopped looking from a distance
and have moved myself closer
Only a few steps nearer
and I know I will hear her
Her voice speaks only to me
on a stage lit in my mind
Sweet phrases to me she will bind
and confuse the maze that is my mind

Wondering away to a place I cannot follow
I cry out in silence as she flows
Leaving the shell that is myself hallow
Leaving only her fingerprints all over my clothes

This cut is not deep and does not bleed
Yet because of her I cannot heal
To act is only to beg her to lead
Leading me to a place I am unable to feel

Her returns recognizable by her goodbyes
She wisps my pain and confusion away
Close is the message I read in her eyes
Yet still I stand in a shade fo grey
The arena of my heart would I give
If she would be sure of the words she speaks
The words that loosened my heart from stone
I'll replay until she sees me as her own
