Broken Clock [Slept On The Floor]

I've slept on the floor

And I drempt of you

 

"Do you ever want to kiss me?

How do I know you're not cheating on me?

I've been hurt before, you're going to do the same thing arent you?

Do you dream of me?

What do we do in your dreams?"

 

All the questions I've wanted to ask

All of the memories I wish to create

I'm scared

Of you

And your answers

 

I'm pacing within myself

It's hard just remembering to breathe

Being anxious like this is indeed such a flaw

But who can tell me when to quit?

There is no loving caress

No sweet words to put my fears at rest

 

Of course, I havent spoken a word

 

My mouth has placed the questions so perfectly

That all I'll have to do is breathe

And they will pour out and in front of you

But fear of losing what shred of happiness I have found

Admist a city of fire and secrecy

Keeps them locked away, pounding within my chest instead

 

Theres no transfer anymore

 

I have never loved until now

And this feeling is of golden descent

So please, my dear

Understand my words

And try not to think lesser of me

When I say you frighten me

Because the more I think about it

I realize I know very little of you

 

For now I will hold onto a promise of December

And keep biting my lip, unsure of how much longer

Because my clock is broken and my heart is soon to follow

Please tell me you mean it when you say you love me

Because I can't bear to think elsewise

once again another very lovely piece, and those questions run through everones head, I love this so so so much, because once you do find that special somebody you fear losing them, ad that's my biggest fear is, they live so far away and if you've been hurt before how do you know? it's just that how do you? I loveyour writing so much

Awe, this was a cute poem too. I can feel the love that you have for this person. I know you want them to be with you forever. So you can treasure every moment you share. The questions you asked in the beginning. You never know what is happening with your lover. That is how I feel with Chris. I don't see him though we don't live that far away from each other. We aren't dating, but I wish we were. I know that eventually you will find the happiness. You and him will make it. Thank you for sharing this piece. You did a great job. Thank you for sharing.
