He Holds Her Every Breath

by Kimber   Apr 4, 2008


Shattered...confused... but fighting
Not even sure what I'm fighting for
I love you deeper than I even understand
My heart refuses to close that door!

I told myself we would be fine
Chin held high I walked away
But suddenly lost the ability to breath
Knocked out cold by reality that day!

You're no longer there...no longer mine
Help me! My brain cannot compute it
There is no poetic answer in my soul!
But you always told me to never quit

Never give up... Never fail
Those words echo in my being
You placed them there at one point
Well...I'm seeing but no longer believing

I apologize for I am certainly failing now
I just can't go on without you here
My heart doesn;t contain that possibility
I'm battling every single tear!!

Please come back to me my love
These death-silent nights I cannot bear!!
I've lost my drive to take my next breath
I lay here absolutely frozen in despair

If my heart could tell your's the truth
Every detail so that you could truly see...
She would weep through every word
She would tell you I'm lost... no longer me

That girl is dying of a broken heart
This is no fairy tale.. No happy ending
This is bone chilling... blood spilling reality
You must quickly find the answer pending

For that girl will die tonight
If that true loves kiss is not submitted
I know I spoke of no fairytale story
But her entire life she had committed

Her story is a tragic one I'm afraid
It all started in innocence I assure you
She only wanted to help the world
She only wanted to love you true!

Cautious... she moved ever so slowly
But her heart gave in before aloud
Without knowing what was going on
It was far too late to turn back now

Lost... she I fell so deep so fast
Not even understanding why
The only truth that remained
Pure love too soon would cause her to cry

Now lying in confusion and desperation
She pleads to the Father above
He still answers no...at least not for now
So she is now drowning in that same love

To be alone in this dark world
Not to love and be loved in return...
Is thee most tragic thing of all
How to accept that she absolutely must learn

Until that lesson has run it's course
That girl is slowly bleeding to death
Fighting desperately to see tomorrow
But that boy holds her every last breath
