Parting

Parting is always difficult
with burning tears dropping down
And that sensation you get down your spine
with every little bit of your soul drowned in misery.

Time goes by quickly
without even counting it
all you are left at the airport with is
should of could of and would ofs
and you begin to ponder about regrets
that would of inevitably changed the course of action.

You try to hold on
as hard as you can
but you feel him slip
from your fingers easily
time tick tacs away
all you can do is swallow your pride
turn around and leave
and hope that
maybe..just maybe
hell stay there and watch you for a few minutes..
nay even seconds would do.

Your heart beats fast, faster than the speed of light
Your brain is flushed with all kinds of thoughts
good and bad
lonely and together
melted with your feelings
but..you never have enough courage to say it all
You always alter it, sensor it out before you let it escape from your lips.
You just want one more day to let him sleep on your bosom
to say those words that you've been waiting for what seems like to be an eternity
...for a chance to be totally in love and happy...
