if you go i will not run after you <br />not anymore <br />not in a decade <br />not in a light year <br />not in a lifetime. <br />im tired of pretensions <br />tired of closing my ears <br />tired of forcing myself to forget <br />tired of letting things pass by. <br />now i catch myself before i fall <br />and i grasp for air <br />that wasn't there before. <br /> <br />i shut my eyes too long <br />i shut my mouth too long <br />i bind my hands too long <br />too long. much too long enough. <br /> <br />now i put a halt <br />to this swaying world. <br />swinging from side to side <br />but i remain in the middle <br />you remain to glide. <br /> <br />always searching... <br />the problem is <br />no one can find me. there. <br /> <br /> <br />© 02.01.05 <br />http: //atomicvelvetsigh.blogspot.com<br /><br />Velvet Astraea Dido<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/and-now-i-stand/
