The Chill Of Your Touch

 I feel a chill in your kiss...

 

like the cold, February wind that rushes through my veins

Oh, how I long for the soft tenderness of your caress

which has now become strangely vacant

 Your warm embrace seems to have lost its fire

and you no longer stroke my face while I sleep

 

Suddenly...

The warmth is gone from your touch

I swallow the pain down inside

not wanting to notice our bridge may be burning

Why can't you just say it-instead of pulling away?

Do the risks seem too high to take a chance?

 

The painful words in my soul bring tears to my eyes

We used to find love in quiet, hidden places

You without pity -  I without shame

Who has taken my place...

Entered my space?

How could I have known you'd tire of me so?

Will you no longer stand by my side?

Together, we could make things right

But...

your silence is so deafening

 

Raindrops pour their clear  waters

washing away my hopes, singing a melancholy song

of lost hope -  of disappearing dreams
I lift my face to the darkened sky

feeling the rain slide down my cheeks

Staring into emptiness

As my heart cries out in silent pain

blinding me from the light

 

I feel so lost without you

But then I realize...

You never really found me

 

Now my heart says...

Where do I go from here?

Oh God...

Tell me -  where do I go from here

"Bring back that loving feeling, oh that loving feeling..." That song is playing in my head now... nothing is colder than the feeling of love dying.
