THAT ONE MOMENT
Do you believe in me?
I no longer know
if I believe in you.
I can't sit and wait
for your judgement to fall,
I have to be acquainted.
Have I lost
my place?
Have I fallen back?
Feel as if
I'm pushed away,
just reach
and pull me back,
pull me in.
Need reassurance,
like that child,
lost and lonely.
More pain
than I'm worth?
Long forgotten memory?
Freak-show
and failure,
friend, fiend,
friend?
Confidence shattered,
steps slipped,
steps missed.
Has my place
been filled,
or worse, forgotten?
Can we ever get back
to where we were,
what we had,
to who we were?
Bridge the gap
-time, space, distance, memory.
Just reach
and pull me back!
Let me
reach for you.
Can you believe in me?
I no longer know
if I believe in me,
without you.
