The EndingA Poem by Aethelwyne
"We're going this way" I said
The short walk home I threw up in the bathroom Cause I had too many shots And then I was sober And it started to rain The sweetest rain I ever stood in And we stood, unmoved. Your embrace, it lifts me off the ground, Electrifies my veins Stronger than your goodbye That brings me to despair, Weaker than my knees, From your "hello" in the morning So you carried me inside Grasping me tight The sweetest grasp we ever held And we sat, unmoved The rain became your tears, Falling from your face, Pouring from your soul, Hitting home on my heart, With the truth free at last Forget the "what if's" And all those pretty cars At the show that day Cause your eyes stood on me Our hands wondered "What would it be like?" To be in one another's While walking, unparted And I swear I never saw, A man like that cry With a dozen reasons why He could no longer be with someone else Now there's no going back When this is the ending. © 2015 Aethelwyne |
