Steps

The pain of not knowing
The anxiety of waiting
For the phone to ring

Red rimmed eyes
Head aching with all the tears
Heart feeling like its tearing in half

To be this miserable
To be in this much pain
To feel this hurt

Is the edge of the sea
You face the rocks now
With their salt spraying on your face

All you can think of is
One step, one little step
To fall free into the embrace of the waves

The one little gesture he could have done
To make you stop hurting
To stop you from making that step

Love has no meaning here
It is power that rules these two souls
His power to destroy hers
Her power to stop existing.
