Fiercely

Fiercely I miss you And feel myself falling Slipping Backwards and down Tripping upside-down Until I've come right round A full circle Where desire smacks into reality And the totality of the truth Is enough to unravel me I'm falling up  in spite of gravity The depravity of my humanity Jumps out at me Weakness fraught with want I have the words but I can't let them go I have the cards but I can't let them show So I stay Above dreams but below truth The gray murky waters grow And I dwell here In the swell here Ready to burst apart with want Held together with distractions and glue But nothing, none of it will do I need you I want you And I need you to want me too
