Nothing Is Complete

By

I'm standing in the midst
Of what future lies ahead.
My feet seem stuck to the ground
'Cause I can't forget what you said.

I struggle to look through the fog -
To see what good may come.
Yet clouds will never leave the sky
Until we resume life as one.

Nothing is complete
Without you right here by my side.
An impossible feat:
To live without you to guide
The way I react to things around me,
The ways I deal with my pain,
The things I do to say I love you
And show you alone life can't be the same.

Silence seems to be the
Only noise around
But I must not be listening,
For your ears are covered by another sound.

The scent of you surrounds me.
Your aroma swells so strong.
You seem so close but aren't -
What did I ever do wrong?

Nothing is complete
Without you right here by my side.
An impossible feat:
To live without you to guide
The way I react to things around me,
The ways I deal with my pain,
The things I do to say I love you
And show you alone life can't be the same.

I thought that we were meant to be
Together for all time.
But what I thought to be eternity
Was just a foolish dream of mine.

My fingers will not let you go;
My heart still cries for you.
How could you fail to embrace the fact
You're the one I've given my heart to?

Nothing is complete
Without you right here by my side.
An impossible feat:
To live without you to guide
The way I react to things around me,
The ways I deal with my pain,
The things I do to say I love you
And show you alone life can't be the same.

Nothing is complete
Without you right here by my side
And impossible feat (I'll encounter)
Never having you again as my guide.

Ostrich

Too afraid to stand and fight; Too much pride to fly away. Cowardice: immobilize Egos lacking skill to play! Games of conflict can’t be played By those afraid to deal a hand. Flightless birds avoid their call Ostriching heads in the sand.  Thanks, Trifecta for the prompt, which requested an animal name be used as a verb. I figured I might as well ignore the dictionary and make my own...flightless birds have always intrigued me, anyhow.

Out-of-Practice Practicing

i haven't decided yet what i'm gonna write here but that's the point i suppose -- to purge all the scum floating on the surface of my brain, to shake the dust off, whatever. today is valentine's day, which excites me because hearts are my favorite colors and sweets are on my list of favorite things. i like the idea of doing something important or meaningful but either nothing of import has happened on this day for me. which is not to say that none of my lovers made an effort, just that none of them made enough of an effort for me to notice. that doesn't mean i'm asking a lot, just asking for the right thing. like some people don't push any of my buttons at all, and some push some pretty nice ones but less and less over the years does he push the ones that i need. and fluff without substance is not enough to sustain me. i guess it was enough for him but there was something missing that grew more and more evident over the years. until i had to leave. blabbit...
