Falling.....
I’m falling
I fight myself
as his hands
his body
move closer
to where I lay
I’m falling
as night turns slowly
into another day
I can’t turn away
his lips touch my lips
gently
as if there were no ill feelings spent
I swallow the hurt
choking on resentment
I’m falling
the familiarity of fires turned to ash
when the hardest years hit
the burns of a flame
I find too difficult to resist.
I fight myself
as his hands
his body
move closer
to where I lay
I’m falling
as night turns slowly
into another day
I can’t turn away
his lips touch my lips
gently
as if there were no ill feelings spent
I swallow the hurt
choking on resentment
I’m falling
the familiarity of fires turned to ash
when the hardest years hit
the burns of a flame
I find too difficult to resist.

The uncertainty provokes the mind to action. First I am trying to figure out whether or not his presence is wanted and then I am trying to ascertain the nature of the fire and flames. (for pieces of romantic endeavors can turn destructive so quickly)

Thanks guys... this is about being in a abusive relationship... being with someone you once loved...wanting to fight but the body isn't as strong as the mind..
