Missed

by

Mark Ian Martin

When we first met, my world had fallen apart
Couldn’t pick up those pieces, didn’t know where to start
My heart was lost, a well run dry
Until I see that magic in your eyes

Just a trembling man, a captive boy
Locked inside, searching for joy
Lost and alone, no where to go
But you were always here, I didn’t know

My tears were inside, I tried to hide
This lost and empty man, without his bride
Waterfalls flow, the noise so serene
To get to you baby; I’m so in between

Feelings what are they
Just all jumbled up
Look inside my empty coffee cup
Is it luck? I’m dumb struck

I felt the earth, rotate inside
A small but deep feeling I just couldn’t hide
The wind blew free against my heart
Trying to show me, a brand new start

Was this the way, to really go?
To follow your heart, to just say no
To everyone you think that cares
But left you deep, so unaware

Flowers bloom, time goes on
It passes you by, you must get on
Don’t leave it, and wait it may never come
If you wish it hard, it shall be done

What a love, what a joy
To feel so strong, man inside a boy
To show the feelings don’t be afraid
Or miss out on life, a love so delayed

NEXT?
Why don't you look at If I should go
