I will die trying

by Kristen   Feb 25, 2005


I knew reality inside of my heart
though these truths i didn't dare to expose
the days were long and agonizing
still, i knew this was the path i had chose
my uneventful dream, my obsession
you represented all that would never be mine
and still day after day i pretended
that you weren't a waste of my time
someday those arms would hold me
wrap themselves softly around my waist
those eyes would stare back into mine
your tender kiss, I'd savor the taste
our hearts would beat together
and I'd surely give you all of me
our souls would be united as one
for this is what was always meant to be
maybe if i had done a little more
or perhaps, loved a little stronger
maybe if i hadn't been so blind and naive
i just can't do this any longer
if you are, in fact, the unattainable dream
to myself i shall continue lying
someday i will be able to call you mine
and if not i will die trying.
