Sometimes I imagine your face
An image that sets me alight.
Those blue eyes
Piercing my soul
In understanding
In love.
I cherish that look
That devotion.
Don’t try and save me
Just be there to help me.
Strong hands reaching out
To comfort
Your touch when I ache
Soothes my pain
Eases my burden of living.
Sometimes I imagine your smile
My mind sees perfection
Flashing me a look
I crave its attention
Teaching me
Studying me
Proving
I am worthy.
I’m not here to save you
But to be with you.
Your hand on mine
Calms my anxiety
Of past sins
Misdemeanours
Erased forever.
I imagine four fingers raised
Through a dusty window
Cementing my love
Making me see
You care,
Hoped like I do.
I hold your image close
As it warms my chilled soul.

Beautiful, yet so sad Michael.
Thank you Jenny, some days my muse goes to such places.
I hear you.
It’s one of those days.
Beautiful and touching
Thank you Yves, sorry for this delay in replying.
I love how you interpreted the image.
My favorite pairs of lines:
Don’t try and save me
Just be there to help me.
I’m not here to save you
But to be with you.
Thnaks RoSy, I have to admit that I had been listening to this song before I wrote it.
I really like the feel & beat of this song.
Absolutely evocative and haunting Michael. 🙂
Thank you so much Pat have a great evening.
