Awakening

One day

  I won't wake up 

At least, not to the sound of your voice

And the touch of your lips on my cheek

    Because you'll be gone

    And I'll be vanquished and abandoned .

You told me to trust you

  That you'll never leave me 

But my faith was never very strong

Even if my imagination was .

And you know that I fear

The forsaken life

I tried to leave behind;

You know that I don't want to go back .

   (I can't hold onto everything

      As I watch my life fall to pieces.)

And I've watched you as you sleep

  By my side, curled up in the blankets

I've watched your lips move and heard you

  As you whisper my name and move closer.

But one day, I won't wake up

To your sweet smile and loving eyes

    And I fear the day that you finally wake up

    And realize what you've gotten yourself into.

A woeful piece about loving someone so much that you would be crushed if you lost him or her. Sometimes we fear that people will leave us, and sometimes we imagine it to be for stupid reasons. It's also really hard to know when someone really loves you. You can never be too sure. Over all a very touching, thoughtful piece by Silverthorne-Studios
