Ulay's Silent Apology
I never could find the words...
For, I’m a man of fewer words
Than a stone
That’s not how my Heart speaks, though!
For, my Heart sings with hidden fire
(and it chokes
When I try to get out the Words...
'Hic!' My throat catches – it’s the smoke
From my burning heart)
Marina, I loved you once
But I didn’t know Love could be
Cruel, too!
Marina, I love you now,
But I can’t get away from you
Don’t want to
When I try to get out the Words...
That's when something breaks in my chest,
And It’s Too Late!
Then the searing pain...
It locks me in, I know I can’t go back...
I wish I could! Because to lose you Then...
Was the dumbest thing I ever did!
But Now you pull... away!
Your hands dismiss me!
I blew it, then, dismissed you then, and losing you, again's... all I have left...
