One Last Time
And I can almost
Hold it
In my hands
Touch it...
Feel it...
Breath it...
That moment
Moments...
That special time
In my life
Everything dulls
In comparison
A year
That I hold
In my heart...
When I fall
Sometimes
And gaze behind me
I question
And I wonder
Was it worth it
All the pain
The confusion
The doubt
And the endless
Unanswered questions...
Everything
After the end
An end that was never
Truly defined
Choked me
Weakened me
Almost broke me...
But, in retrospect
I know
That I
Would do it
All again
And I'm just trying
To find my way
Back to your arms
Where I can listen
To your heartbeat
I'm just looking...
Searching...
For a way
For you to hold me
Just one...
Just one last time...
