Misunderstood

by Beth - Scorpio

I try to speak
my vioce falters

How can I make you understand?

All these years drift between us
I close my eyes

I see you before me.

Your eyes burn with fire
You were this raging sea

A force unconquerable
You challenged me.

You taunted me with that promise in your eyes.
You whispered words of cryptic hope. (But I never told you I knew)

My emotions for you ran high.
Grew and intensified

You fueled them with the flames and smoke

I still hear you calling
It's a distant rumble in my soul.....
