When Emotions Are Allowed

What lines were crossed
when love became fear
and we chased away
the years –
by hanging on.

Who are you now
where have you been
did you ever love me
or are you –
just another piece of life
whose broken down.

But when you stop
just spin around
and if you see a candle
then you know
you’re welcome home.

But if you see the darkness
let your tears begin to fall –
maybe then……
you’ll understand
how hard lost love is
when emotions are allowed
to hit the ground.
