Trapped In The Margins

Running on the wind to the sunrise
To forget how the moonlight shines in your eyes
Waiting for those feelings to subside
So it no longer feels like death inside my soul
My breath gets caught on every word
My heart gets caught with every beat
I still feel you inside of me
It still lingers.
Like the way you ran your fingers through my hair
My lips still tingle with anticipation of kissing you
I place my hand on my cheek and sigh because I know
That these are just dreams of what used to be
An idealization of what could never be again
So until I learn to breathe without thinking of you
I just keep running on the wind to the sunrise.
