Despair

Dear friend,
If you could only see my hurt right now somehow,
and dear friend, If we could only find some easy way out,
This time I know, pretending things are fine won't save this,
an uncommon ground has broken us apart,
and there's no sure way, to explain the burden on my heart,
I tried for so long, to prevent this split between us,
behind all the macho games we play in the competition we battle,
the hidden soft spot in me has always been you,
where to go from here has become the cause of this deep anxiety,
as I wake in tears eash night,
willing to surrender all this pride that keeps us from mending,
I'm sure this wound will soon heal,
but the tension is too great to bare,
with so much weight from the world,
these shoulders have shed enough blood,
if a memory is all we will become,
I'll cheerish it forever,
and be jealous of what we had,
the hand that's kept me from falling so many times,
is it no longer,
I will think of your presence,
and remember the page we turned,
for it is not one that should be forgotten.Josh Mock -----copyright 2001
