save us.

When I think 

about you, 

I lose sight 

of reality. 

everything and 

everyone 

around me 

turns into

nothing. 

the water

stands still.

the birds

freeze

in place,

the trees 

settle,

my body 

stays still. 

my hands

go numb,

my toes

start to

tingle.

it all goes 

black.

my heart

cries for 

you.

screaming

for just 

one more

touch.

but it is 

silenced by

the ringing 

in my ears, 

and the 

knot in my

stomach.

i forget

how to 

breathe.

i go through

the motions,

yet end up 

no where. 

i'm frozen 

in time.

you were

able to 

save 

yourself.

save me,

too.
