Climate ChangesA Poem by MelLM
If I could tell you of the beauty you are
If I could ever relay my gratitude If I could ever find my true voice around you If you ever knew what I've been thinking Of course, this is false. You know my thoughts I share them with you. Just you. You know of my fears Just as I know of yours, You know how I truly fear The brunt of a storm. I can be a storm-no. I would be the storm If I ever tried to tell you how much I truly care; How much I truly appreciate you. How much I am going to miss you. My voice would be the flurry Hushed with excitement and terror. My breathing would be the gale as is it is thrown from the ocean. My tears would flood my nervous smile, And my voice would quiver as if I was the mighty earthquake determining our fates. Someday I could be the storm. I could destroy or create, But I am just a light breeze Waiting for your gust of approval That I fear I will never get. © 2013 MelLM |
