Denial

by *Charisma*   Jan 21, 2007


The answer I am waiting for
Is hidden within your eyes
But what the meaning is
Drowns in sweet disguise

Your love is what I want
For me, and me alone
But loneliness could wait
And leave me on my own

I sense your indecisive
As your heart beats for two
I know what I desire
And for me, that's only you

But you have a battle
Lingering deep in your mind
Rising to the surface
With no answer to find

No simple explanation
Nothing telling wrong or right
It's up to no one else
It's a battle YOU must fight

The outcome could disappoint
And leave me in despair
But an answer's all I want
Not questions in the air

I know you care about people
And no heart would you break
But this is a decision
Where one must carry the stake

And yes, I'd be that person
If that's where I come in
And yes, I'd cry those tears
Over and over again

But at least there's conclusion
An ending to this story
Someway to say it's over
Whether good or bad for me

So you must tell me now
Which one of us can smile?
I can't live another day
While you live in denial.

Please RRC!!! It rolled right off my tongue and I would love thoughts on it!!!

    I can so relate to this one! Excellent flow and rhyme. I especially like the first verse:

    The answer I am waiting for
    Is hidden within your eyes
    But what the meaning is
    Drowns in sweet disguise

    Wonderful write as always! 5/5
