Forever

Would forever be long enough
to love you
To hold you
to talk with you
To listen to the lullaby of your breath
To wrap myself inside of your strong arms
Would forever be long enough
to wake each morning beside you
To swim inside of your deep gaze
I love to have your stare upon me
To have your mind hold the thought of me
to be able to close my eyes & exhale
Would forever be long enough
or will you slip through my heart
Like a sunset-
beautiful & perfect but only for a few moments

CPR

Tearing, twisted, shattering
This must be my heart dying
One last time
My broken heart has been shattered one to many times
I'll never give it away again
Carefully, I've picked up the pieces and locked them away
Locked for protection, locked to never trust again, locked for good
Clinging to life, the poor pieces of my heart barely beat
Lies, Control, Power, Manipulation
Were the focus of this chess game
I was blinded by the the thought that I was in the game too
Even resuscitation will not save my wounded heart now
