A special poem close to my heart about love the first time around. As I See it. |
- Behind My Lips For You- by Keaton Foster There She is Just a kiss As much I miss She A significant stranger Such a wanting danger Living someplace else Residing in another life As I remain right here In ever deepening anger I should move on I could find another But I won’t The stages of such grief Ridiculous they may be When the person So grievously grieving Remains in a step longer Than should be expected There she is My former love No longer bound By her words Or mine To God We swore allegiance To each other We confessed A hindrance Death Didn’t do us part Life did She moved on I remained Frozen in position These images Our memories Are all that I have All that remains She is gone Moved along She loves another Or so she says I love no one How could I Once is all for me There can never be A second go around My perilous heart Saw the light However so brief And now It has returned Deep into the recesses Of my darkened chest Into the chaotic Blackness of my soul It will never again know Nor do I want it to Even if she returned Even if she came back I’m not sure That I could again love her As I so deeply do Behind my lips for you Are the words That I can’t say There they will remain They will never escape Just like the pain I feel Over knowing That what we had Can never be again When I die When she expires We may see each other Maybe in Heaven Maybe in hell After such an altercation We may be forced By the will of God To again find ourselves He might compel us To keep the promise That we both made He just might do that Or even more I never broke mine Nor do I intend to Behind my lips for you Waits what has always been What I have always meant Sure I’m still mad Sure my faith is shaken Time is what it will take But even then I’m not sure That time will be enough I know and understand I’m prepared to face All that has been broken Dare I say, by you… Behind My Lips For You Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2014. |
