Vulture or Dove

by sharon - Cancer

You've been blessed
And you've been cursed
It can't get better
Until it gets worse
You left me with silence
And a ringing in my ears
I left you with bitter words
And a hanful of tears
And if I died today
I wonder who would care
I want to crash into you
But I don't dare
I try to ignore
The numbness sinking in
When I see how your eyes
Hold no emotion
But I am still breathing
I know I'm alive
Maybe I'll never get it right
But at least I tried
I grab at the air
There's just no-one like you
You can be soft
You can be cruel
You blinded me
Into seeing what I love
And now I must decide
Between a vulture. . . or a dove
