"That look"

September 10, 2017

I just hope she never leaves me

I just hope that she'll believe me

Images flash in my mind...

Signs of the times..

I may need her more than she may need me.

Life is hard, som things ain't easy..

But at night I lay awake just to picture her dreaming

Her smile is forever in my mind

Her eyes sit, gleaming

And I don't know what it is...

I just hope she never leaves me..

My pain can be excruciating

My insides bleeding

But I love her deeper than love's roots..

I just hope she believes me

So, I leave her light poems, in quotations they say "Read Me"

My past thoughts conclude

I may need her more than she needs me.

In all light, she shines

In the darkest night, she sees me

Oh my dear God, 

I just hope she never leaves me.
