The Embrace

jess brown

 

 

I hold you in my arms at an amusement park.

Fingers cupping your face ever so tenderly almost soft like a feather.

The conviction clear in my eyes of my love for you that is forevermore.

The pain rolling down my cheeks as I fight to stay together.

Our hair light and dark blowing lazily as I see pain rolling down your face.

Children’s laughter their joy my ultimate heartache.

Oh how I long to tell you what gives my heart constant suffering but alas I cannot.

Your Amazon eyes and deep lust visage I see in every song I listen to.

Most of the stories I’ve written.

The majority of the poems I’ve compiled.

Knowing that you’re the reason I keep going everyday.

Why I don’t give up.

Why I’ve crushed on you for five long years.

Why I spent most nights crying myself to sleep.

And maybe that’s why I got congestive heart failure because I love you so hard.

If only you could see what I see through my windows.

The pain.

Joy.

Happiness.

Downfalls.

Loss.

Just everything I’ve done for myself to impress you but I guess it’s just not enough.

Then a person said "Actions speak louder than words" and so I kiss you deep and full breaking part of my virgin self away.

And it becomes abundantly clear my emotions show in your windows.

I smile more pain rolling down my face and you kiss back so I can see through your windows what you feel for me.

Then you get pulled away vanishing into wispy smoke like that amusement park and children.

And I try to hold your hand but it vanishes away leaving me in my pain eternal.

Leaving me in the white.........
