what we ...provide each other

Here, i stand, troubled still,

My world inside is tumbling down

My will to resist is crumbling

My hope that no one notices, but you

As my feet touch gently down to earth

My mind sends another silent call to you,

Please listen…

I cannot do this dance alone,

Just continue in my climb to nowhere

Will you ignore me once again making feel just like a clown,

Acting out my fantasies while no one is around

Even the mimes are laughing

Almost, more than i can bear

Where now to go...

When i do not desire to abandon you, to face your greatest fears alone

It’s bringing me to tears

Struggling, even with you my dearest friend, beside me

Spinning round in circles, reeling...the feelings,

Warm and tender, almost lost

Gathering strength by increments, have i got the will?

To overcome this never ending storm

Trying, time and again to find a place where inner calm resides

As if to provide solace to shake this impending gloom,

...this empty feeling, no matter what the cost

Strong words behind the thoughts

Finding what it takes to change the outcome

Of the sum of all our past mistakes is a revealing of what it is to love

Accepting that our loss, of course is worth the cost

Of what we provide  ...each other

When things come apart and no longer having you there

To patch and mend pieces of my breaking heart

It seems we mix  ...and when we blend, it’s like oil and water

In our separate pools of thought

We need what it takes to make amends

Without pretending what it is we're after

Is the master of our merging fates
I’m losing you

Trying to focus myself and balance you

All the while we seem to be

Moving in two directions at one time

Will never do to accomplish what things

There are  ...we need

To do
