Can you pretend for this moment?

by +Fouillis+   Aug 24, 2006


Can you pretend for tonight,
that your love is for me?
Can you whisper your words,
that will set my soul free?

Can you just for this once,
take my hand into yours?
Can i borrow the key to your heart,
and open the door?

Can you wrap me up tightly,
where I\'m safe in your arms?
Can you for one second,
turn off all the charms?

Can you help me t breathe,
I\'m suffocating in tears?
Can you cover my eyes,
chase away all my fears?

Can you please meet my gaze,
set your eyes into mine?
Can you share with me your wings,
so together we can fly?

Can you walk out in the rain,
just to stand there with me?
Can you lay back on the grass,
where only stars we can see?

Can you take me inside,
pour me a rum?
Can you let me get drunk,
just so i can feel numb?

Can you sit by me now,
while i rest here in bed?
Can you talk to me softly,
so i can clear my head?

Can you pretend for this moment,
that its only me and you?
Can you promise me always,
to yourself you\'ll be true?

Coz alone in this room,
its only you that i need,
But just down the road,
I know your heart bleeds.

It still weeps for your past,
for the love that you lost,
While i dreamt that i loved you,
as i turned and i tossed.

As i wake up,
my dream fades away,
i realize you don\'t love me,
but i like it this way.

For i know that my dreams,
will never be real,
And i don\'t love you either,
Its just not how we feel.

But i still need to feel your hand,
laced tightly into mine,
I still need you to dry the tears,
Coz in my eyes they shine.

I still need your arms around me,
to make me feel so safe,
I still need you to fight my fears,
to make them go away.

I still need you to catch my eye,
and for a while hold your gaze,
I still need to hear your words,
that clear my minds eye maze.

Coz i know from deep inside,
your a best friend like no other,
so now i have four words for you,
Thanks again, Big brother....

[Just something i thought of... Its personal in an odd way. (Hes not really my brother by the way, just the best mate any one could ask for)]

    I completely relate to this. i have this friend who I've been friends with since grd 6, she's my best friend and i care about her more than anyone in the world, kind of like you're relationship with this person i'd guess.

    I really loved this poem, except for one stanza the rhythm in it is perfect as well as the rhyming in it. excellent job.
