Bid me Farewell, Biding time

Feb. 25, 08

If
I keep my back towards you
Will you memorize that curve?
You so gently place your hands

If
I keep my head turned away
Will you memorize that curve?
That neck you say is enticing

If
I tell you that it is the best
Will you memorize that curve?
That hesitation in my voice

If
I bite those lips in shame.
I always end up turning away.
I walk out on you again today

-If
I do these things
Will you still love me?
I swear to you; it is for you.

I don't look back
Hope you are always looking
Forward-
With love the hesitation
Burdening my conscious voice
My lungs.
Can you see me in fog
My hurt and opaque reasons
My heart.
