Strangers From a Distance

Strangers from a distance
Strung together
No understanding
But I'll love you forever
Head spins, by all winds
Blamed and strained
By everything twice
Over and over
Feels like life
Unfocused and unsure
Emotions lash out galore
Flashbacks of the past
Affect our future
Nothings ever funny
No one ever laughs
He says don't bring it with you
But I drag it right on back
What it does to ourselves
It throws me off track
Confused and stressed
I'm all a mess
I apologize
For reliving the past
Plus the lies
We cant move forward
Without you pushing me toward
Toward the life we need to have
The passion we have
Has to last
Strangers from a distance
Strung together
With more understanding
Hopefully, we will last forever!!

Happy First day of 2015. Skylish, I like the way you spill the emotions, through and through. Not a certain thing to focus on. But, HEY! Hang on, and things might get a little clearer. Enjoyed. LINDA
