Pushing Away into more Distance....

Pushing Away into more Distance

They say if you love someone let them free
But they've never known insecurity 
I was raised and resurrected, into a blissful state of being
Only to have been dropped into a whirlpool of obscurity
I want her love, but she has lost faith
Every time I bleed my heart from sleeve
She pulls away
The concept of heartbreak and self doubt lies a threat on her window paine
She may think I'm the same like all the others
Just another man 
Lurking beneath my composure, in the shadows waiting to stab
And every time I am pushed away
I die, I cry, with nothing or no one to confide
Always such distance when you let someone deep into the center of your heart
A place where no one would expect to enter
I'm alone on a boat along a desolate river
A dangling rope that hangs and fog pollutes and intoxicates the air
I feel a shiver, a cold death touching the shoulders and skin
Is it better to compartmentalize and keep secrets
Than devote oneself into honest commitment.
