above me
was you
and no night shown
as my eyes struggled to focus,
feeling strength fleeing,
to focus
squeezing your hand
as sirens wailed
and I inhaled metallic breath,
and now its up to this,
just this wish...

to focus on your face

to hear the words pouring
in a deluge from your lips
mingling with salt drips
from your eyes.

focus

on your face becoming so distant
~~~~~~~~~~~~whoa~~~~~~~~~~~~
lost time for an instant,
why are you shaking me?
and acting crazy

focus

outside noises compete with words,
its a struggle to make my voice heard
Can you hear me?
why are you
taking steps
back?

What's this? Who is that?
Touching me

please, baby, FOCUS

why is the night
playing with the day
I can't see you anymore
...please stay
I apologize if I've hurt you
or made you feel I didn't need you
questioned your manhood,
or at times didn't believe you

I love you

so loud that my soul is deaf
So much I've no breath left to say the words
but please hear me…
I love you!

so focus on that fact
if a memory of me
should ever make you
forget that
