Mark Brown Poet Verse

Once

couldn't give you my heart when what's left of it is not
      enough to share.
       washed away in the rough current of streams that started
        out as a leaking faucet's tears.
       I would hold her in my arms ,not knowing what am I 
       supposed to feel?
       paranoia would whisper to me when lips kiss,
       could there be other men that these lips conceal?
       I once would of loved you deeply and never would I drown.
       love once had me at a lost for words but at the hands
       of  "amazing grace" thank god  I am found.
       time to love myself ,take me as I am , these words 
      I speak to the image of my own reflection.
    once asked , why so shy?, why so quiet?, 
    not knowing what should really matter is the answers to my
    very own questions.
    once upon a time I would of .......but now it just doesn't seem fair. 
    an uneven exchange where I give you my heart but in return you
    give me back my very own tears.
