Don't Know

How can I want
When I'm not with you?
How can I dream
When you're away?
How can I feel
When I can't hold you?
How can I have
What words can't say?

Why can't I touch
What can't be broken?
How can someone
Be held this close?
Why do I care
That I can't have you?
Should I hope for the best,
Or should I repose?

Don't know.

How can I love
When I'm not with you?
How can I breath
When you're away?
How can I live
When I can't hold you?
How can I have
What I can't say?

Why do I feel
Like I'm being conveyed?
What makes me stay
although I'm downplayed?

So is happiness
Just beyond my reach?
Should I confess,
Or should I beseech?
So who should I be
And where should I go?
Why must I need?
Do you suppose?

Don't know.

[But the best part of all is
I have one thing that I can easily say
In any form, and in any way:
Is that the thing that I want to say the most,
Which is something that I don't even know how to say.]

confusion is something that goes with love sometimes. When you finally let them know about your love, how they react will set the tone for what you do then. Hopefully your love will be returned, but sometimes it is not! We never know how we will act when we fall, or how hard we will fall. Good luck, Anthony

There are parts of this that are almost profound. :-)

In this stanza...
Why do I feel
Like I'm being conveyed?
What makes me stay
although I am downplayed?

You have "I'm" in the second line but "I am" in the third. It seems awkward to me. Perhaps it would read smoother if both were "I'm". *shrug*

I know I'll be back to read this again. I really liked it!
