Msl. Poem by dana mariee

The song of the life-like shadows dancing among the cold, headstrong barriers that we call walls overplays itself in my head. Deep thoughts spin in my mind like a turbine in an old factory. I subconciously roll over so that I face away from my window as the sun takes a peek into my bedroom attempting to awake me from my everlasting day dreams of you. As I take the deepest of breaths I notice the scent in the air as if it had just rained; however, the sky hasn't shed a tear in quite some time so I quickly brush off the thought as it must be a figment of my imagination, seeing as somewhere tucked away in the back of my mind is a note, one of many, reminding me of how you love that smell. Love. That simple, yet intricate four letter word burns a spot in my mind. I am ignorant as it tries to speak up to me one more time. I push it away in fear of having to face the harsh reality, having to face what I already know, having to face what I'm scared of. I realize that I need to break down some of the walls that I have built up around myself in order to let you in. So if you were here with me right now, I would look into your eyes and try my very hardest to tell you just what you mean to me, how much I truely love you, I would try to tell you all of the things you have taught me, that I need you. How much I want you to be here for me, to hold me tight in your arms and put me back together when I fall apart. I would tell you how I need you to be here with me through the rest of my life, but most of all, my love, I would tell you that I need you to love me back, I need you to want me to be only yours, and I want you to need me as much as I need you.
