He could see the clouds roll across her face A storm about to pour He said he couldn't wait, couldn't stay, Couldn't talk about it anymore Couldn't take her, couldn't feel her, Couldn't hold her nearer, So what was he lingering for? If he could only see Those pools of stone staring back at me... What did he see When he looked at me? Something made him close the door Sit back down And talk to me a little more...

Parting

In a bittersweet moment of endless intensity He seized my heart again, so easily My soul threatened to pour As pools of warm stone stared back at me An emotional embrace of sweet sorrow, In harsh light, A "goodnight", Then our arms go slack... A kiss, I step aside so He can go... ...Please baby, don't look back... ~elyzsia 2002.
