I fall short of everything I am meant to be, a lover, a friend, a teacher, a nurse, a mother... Like a slow autumn leaf, I glide in the wind and never hit that smooth patch of earth I am destined too. Shall always be left to linger in that slow current of air, never succumbing to my fate, alway falling short of perfection. I speak cruel dark shadow words, I cut flesh with razor blades, my eyes are not clear and bright with sweet relief. Forgive me, for the pain I inflict, it is not intentional, though I know it lingers still even after the wound has healed, Just know that I love you more than life and breath and the ground beneath your feet, know I would give every last breath to spare your lives, know that I am only human, but I will try harder that ever.... Most of all you are my world... |
