Can We Make It?
By:
Patricia Walker
When I stand still I can still feel
your body
the way you just held me
the way you picked me
up
when we laid beneath
the stars
just hearing your
voice
when you put your arms
around me
we talked for hours
remember?
you looked me in the eyes
and kissed me softly
ooohh, your kiss
your sweet lips pressed
upon mine
i told you i needed to
put my wall back up
you looked in my eyes
with your hands grasped
upon my face
"we both know that wall is no longer there
and even if it is, i'll break right through it."
i told you...
i couldn't have hope
and you'd began to tell me
you'd hadn't been that
happy in a long time
i remember...you placed
your hand upon my heart
and felt it
burst.
the kiss that followed
i began to melt
do you remember?
the moment i began to cry?
you wiped them away
you told me to stop
and
i did instantly
i don't want this day
to be a
dream
i want it to be
our reality.
