Half emptied

Love me? Will you?

The world can never be silent
as midnight struck in my wooden bed
My mind circles back to you
And what these gestures have done

You make me whole;
For a long time--
For years,
I kept the shadow,
Tried to feel comfort in my halfness--
Half emptied self.

And then,I got lost track of time
Never at first try, I thought that silence we shared
Was the shortest I ever heard,
And funny how I want it to last
Your silence is my safe haven
For centuries of finding and waiting

Of all my poems--
You are my favorite,
For you are an art itself
That I could not just put in sheets,
For You were all over me

I felt like fate had led us to this feeling,
You made me love my silence,
My demons you turned down
The moment I rest on your chest
Your fingers on my hand,
Shuts the doubts in me

We discovered our soul,
Love in silence, on our own,
Just the touch,
The burn of unsaid goodbye
For life's made us fleet to nowhere,
And time's not made for us yet

But I am here,
Hope that these verses find you
I have felt more vulnerable,
Putting my guard down
I am more human than I've ever been
I feel things as if they're all first
As if it fits perfectly to me

I broke down the walls,
I waited for you, I waited for silence to come over and tell me
To Rest upon your chest
And heaven I could die for
For in you, I'd let myself be half emptied again,
Just to come see you,
Yearn more of you
And love you completely

But just like I said, we are used to
Unsaid goodbye
To early goodbyes,
To coming back and to become strangers
Again
I'll be half emptied, and it will stay the same
For after I come see you,
It will be the same goodbye, all over again.

It kills me. Everytime J. It does. All the time.
