When I Thought Of You

When I Thought Of You

A Poem by Dark Tower

A warmed tear glides down my face
No time to dry
Before a hundred take its place
I wonder why
I can't hold these back
As they curve to my lips
I find I relish the taste

What new pain is this?
From where did it come?
Where is my home?
Why am I here?
Why am I here alone?

Are you and I
So differently hurt that we can't just be together?
You are scared of things that don't matter
I am more worried about the mood changing like weather
How they make you feel
I make it better
The freedom they take
Is what I un tether

I don't know why I feel this way
I must be honest
I'm actually ashamed
I barely know you
At all
But the second I held you
I started to fall

When we spoke to each other
And we shared our pain
I heard every word and felt it the same
And when we held each other
There was a spark in my brain
That ran through my veins

You are the sweetest kiss
That I have ever known
Right on the tips of your lips
That's where my love has gone
My hands that have held you in them
Will never feel comfort again
My heart that was pressed against yours
Now only beats pain

At least until
You are in my arms again
I will never be fulfilled
