Tear Soaked Cheeks

I whisper through the tears and sobs ,
To myself,
"It could be so much worse"

I try to steady my breathing,
Lay on my stomach, chest pressed to the floor,
Because the pressure makes the anxiety slowly fade...

My heart aches,
I long for my arms to be around you,
And yours to be around me,
The way you embrace me after a fight,
The way you hold me tight when my world is in shambles.

I've sacraficed so much,
And I can't help but ... wonder.

Wonder what you're thinking,
And TRULY feeling
One the other side of the static.

So here I sit,
Tear soaked cheeks

Where Would You Be?

If the stars shined one last time for me,
And the moon whispered her goodbyes to me,
In that moment where would you be?
Would you be thinking of me?
Or your self proclaimed destiny?
