Kneeling
Shari Sullivan 1967 (Arizona)
Your memories are a little one sided
It's not you, it's me
I once confided
All roads led to we are divided
Emotions so deep and so close to the surface
I try to find meaning there has to be a purpose
The ways in which you deal keep me reeling
Every time we separate
I can't shake
This devastating feeling
I need some time for healing
Why do I find our time so appealing
It became traumatizing
You kept me kneeling
