I want to love you
but you wont let me
the aching is killing me
slowly and quietly
swallowing my time
taking it from me
and casting it far
into the depths
of empty despair
where I love yous
are nothng but words
tainted and traced
with a cold breath
my heart reaches
so far beyond anything
this world could know
yet in returnes
empty, alone and lost
I dont know where to turn
I cant do this anymore
maybe ive already died
maybe tears are death
that linger in hope
in dreams that cry
so I close my eyes
and find a better place
where God loves me
where he holds me
and your empty arms
cant hurt me anymore
maybe it's time
to say goodbye

This is very sad and yet very beautiful at the same time. The imagery is just phenomenal especially the few lines about maybe tears are death, there just are no words...
Hope you are more happy now,

Excellent!
Well penned my old friend. Sometimes inspiration births forth from unpleasant circumstance, yet the words flow beautifully. And thus your true strength shines through. Many well wishes to you.

This is sad but rings true. I can relate to the longing because I'm not married. It is sad that someone married has the same lonely feelings.
I like in the end that you point to the only one who can satisfy this longing to be loved. -

as you know I have tried over and over and over again to make this marriage work and it has some great points but the bad just seem to out weigh the good by so much and my heart is so tired of trying and hurting. so like I said maybe its time to say good bye. Thank you for reading my friend it is nice to hear from you again. And yes only God consumes my being and that is why I am still here standing stronger than even I may know in the midst of the storm because I know that I know that I know God lives and is and has a greater purpose for my life!
thank you and God bless!

This seems so utterly sad to me. The coldness of empty arms...to love and not be loved hurts more than anyone could know...I've known that pain, and I'm sure many have. I hope it gets better for you.
