Gate A2 Charlotte

I'm standing, looking out the window at Gate A2 Charlotte, N.C.

The baggage is loading.

I'm standing and thinking, mostly dazed; sleep has been short.

My words may not accurately describe...explain.

Having just read midway, your words...so dark are your thoughts...causing me concern. Fear can be exciting at times. I'm still deciding.

You'd run (to me)

He didn't.

You recall.

He missed the best...or forgot to ask.

Under Control - Dana Tiger

 

I released my heart...again. I cannot let it out as easily as you think.

I cannot lie without love and, once I love, there are things I need and things you cannot have.

I'm so tired I cannot think. My gut tells me that I am taking on more than I can handle.

Then the thought of you drawing my breath away leads me to recall the sureness in your touch and reminds me of your soft tones of surrender.

I released my heart...again.

So what will you do when I need more?

Where will you be when I need you?

This need you feel will be more than you can handle. I'm more......

Where will you be when I need more? What can I do? I'll be too far away when you realize that you need more. Where will we be, as dawn returns and we return home? How many others have....?

I break, I hurt. Are you ready for this?

Will you take on another responsibility? How much pain will my memory cause you?

I read of them, page by page. Which unhappy page will I be?

Hopefully (for you) the last one.

I hardly thought of you all weekend...and you were so close...hardly thought of you all weekend...except for when I was describing the pain. He grabbed my arm.

You lose.
