I wrote this a few years ago, for a good friend of mine who lost her boyfriend in a car accident. I had left Christianity, and she was wrestling with her faith issues at that time. This Dance Falling in the dark Stumbling Unable to catch my balance Swaying to the distant melodies We drip with anticipation Hungry, but unfed This wild ride That winds around Up and down Colorful like a carnival My head spins Promises in the wind That never come true Your mouth meets mine Frozen, I do nothing This dance This romance Tell me it will never end Tell me I’m not dreaming Then, my world explodes You are gone Only fragments of you exist in my head This dance This romance Vanishes… Without a trace Were you here at all? He is in a better place Heaven awaits Say a prayer Take care And, The One will be sure to hear your despair This ache, this suffering It would be better to have never met you Never loved you This dance This romance Sifting through my hands, like a summer rain Ah, but the heart never lets go It winds around and holds tight To even the mundane of all we shared It won’t let me forget This dance This romance This life This pain This suffering This void This… breakable heart of mine Tell God…I miss you.
