Say...Something

On bent knees I plead
say something... I'm giving up on you
Eyes closed...the feel of your fingertips
still resonating in every pore
tears streaming down my face
I can still feel the "I Love You"
you so fearfully withhold
and I stand in limbo
in a perpetual state of unknown
Hands shaking
Heart pounding...it seems time has slowed
Pulse racing
Mind going miles a millisecond
Futures passing as I kneel
Hanging onto the hems of your silence
Clutching to the whisper of possibilities with you
This quiet scares me
Tell me!!!
I feel you
I breathe you
I seek you
even in the midst of your contradicting refusal
Your heart says yes
Your eyes search mine
Though your lips try to lie
And I think
I suppose
I guess
that I know you
Ease my mind... cradle my soul
Erase my doubts
Or solidify my anguish
Because I've cried out my desire for you
Sobbed out your name
in unwanted dreams
Carved your name in my heart
Your memory made permanent
But I need to know something
Please
Just say... something
Anything
Because I'm giving up on you
