You Can't

  I need your love.
The closest thing I have to peace,
the only thing sustaining me.
My eyes are swimming, tears,
drowning me.
Hold me.
You can't, you can't.
The night seperates us.
I kiss your shoulder as you turn away.
The seasons pass
unraveling our gentle sighs.
We must wait for heaven.
This heaven of books written
won't do.
Only passing time can bring us together.
The night swallows us whole.
Save me.
You can't, you can't.
