1998, Shawna Luttrell
Moments when you held me,
when I heard the lyrics in my head.
So passionately did I thrive.
Somewhere along the lines,I lost that.
When we laid together,
we talked about marriage.
But could I ever love someone,
like you?
I thought I knew everything,
but when you held me,
I didn't feel the ache to have to let go.
When I look back,
at moments we shared,
I feel so numb to everything,
love had to offer.
When I let you go,
I thought I was gaining control.
When really I was losing,
a massive part of me.
