I was in a room filled with words floating around

as if they were air 

but 

they were thick 

and heavy 

and it was hard to breathe 

they got stuck in my throat 

and they were impossible to read 

even though I really tried 

to decipher what they said 

I could not make any sense out of it 

and I woke up gasping 

out of breath 

I knew you had been standing there as well 

not saying anything 

your back 

broad and black 

a shadow of darkness in the dim light 

Oh

The view reminds me of you

your smile

Watch

the sunset flickers

and the sea is perfect

Glowing light dancing on the surface

and in the water drops on your skin

Your hair all messy in the wind

I taste salt on my tongue

Somewhere

A song

A memory

I hum

I sing

everything that happens is written, they said.

but what about the pages ripped from my diary.

if you loved me, you would have saved me.

if you really loved me. you would have known how i was feeling.

that i was bleeding.

that i was needing.

that i needed your love.

if you loved me, you would have loved me before i cried for you to.

you would have had a feeling

to what i was meaning

that i was needing.
