Words for you

I have written words about you,

somehow you never knew I knew you,

somehow your eyes don’t see me here.

I have poured my heart out for you to see,

someway you seem to always pass me by,

someway your eyes look through me.

I have given to you my world,

somewhere you have lost your way,

somewhere I am trying to lead you home.

I have always loved you from a distance,

someone close to you without you knowing,

someone like me, that someone is me.

I have poured my tears out for you to feel the rain,

something tangible seems so far away,

something in my eyes bleeding for you.

I have tasted death to know your heart,

some would find my soul deathly ill,

some are lost to feel anything at all.

I write for you now with blind eyes,

someway, somehow I am unable to speak,

something somewhere has got to give.

I waited for you in the cold winter smiling,

I wait here still under the frozen heart inside,

I am here bleeding my love for you.
