THE WAY YOU TASTE
Debbie Middaugh AKA TURBO1904 1963 (San Diego, CA.)
You filled me with passion,
And a lie.
Left me here stunned,
Asking why?
The years have come
And gone.
I felt, by your side,
That is where I belong.
I feel so hopeless,
Deep inside.
No where to run,
Nowhere to hide.
We made an odd couple,
I believed you cared.
You calmed the part of me,
That is scared.
It gets lonely here,
In the unknown.
I was just another,
Steppingstone.
Fear and trauma,
Memories of the past.
It was not love,
If it doesn't last.
.
My silence screams,
Aloud.
No sunshine,
Gray with clouds.
My thoughts are heavy,
I stare into space.
I can still remember;
The way you taste.
