This inevitable truth

I’m waist deep in candid frames,
In moments that never last quite long enough

They build up around me, forcing my knees to quiver,
And explode into shaking hot breaths
That slowly fizzle out against our lips

Too soon the embers cool beneath my skin
And I cling to you to keep myself
From the cold and eager darkness
That’s pacing outside of this bed

And behind the circles from my fingertips
And wandering thoughts that send me too far away
Lay numbing truths that stop my heart,
Sending me into frantic spurts
Of too many unanswered questions

But I fear the truth, the resolve in your voice,
And cower against your palms,
Against the twinge of hope I find
When your stares don’t know I feel them,
And so I fling myself from cliffs of thought,
Too afraid to utter a word and find that you’re not there to catch me

    Sounds like you're still in the same situation,
    I can only hope he does right by you in the end.

    All the best to you Jackie
