Oklahoma sky
I needed air
So off
I took
Walking.
The
Sun
Was in
My eyes.
I could
Barely see
But I was
Not going
Back to
The car
To get my
Sunglasses.
I was walking
Home.
I was
Done.
Tears
Falling
Down
My face.
I am right
Here feeling
This.
Feeling all
Of this.
I have not
Felt in
Years.
You made
Me feel.
Feel
Love
Passion
Life
Happiness
Saddness
Loss.
I could.
Barely
Breathe.
You got
Out of
The car.
Running after
Me.
I turn
And stop.
I look
At you,
All these
Feelings
Running in
My soul
My veins
My heart.
You start to
Speak.
Don't.
I say,
Please do not
Speak.
I won't
Make it
If you say
One unkind
Word to me.
I start crying.
I continue
Sobbing,
Then
I say,
My spirit
Is still broken
And if you,
Say something
Mean
I will not
Recover.
I had
21 yrs
Of mean
Words.
Just walk away
If you need
To, I say.
You look
At your feet.
You start
To speak
You start
With... If
This was another
Time in my
Life.
I stop you
By holding up
My hand.
I speak,
Please
Stop.
I say to
You.
We both stand
Crying.
I look at
The sky.
The sun is
Setting and the
Colors are
Amazing.
You start to
Talk and
Your voice
Is shaking.
I..
You say
And stop.
Silence.
I start to speak
Remembering
The first song
I ever
Heard with
You.
Meet me..
I say
And
Before I can
Finish
You complete
My words.
You say,
Under the Oklahoma sky.
I reply,
When
Your ready.
You say
Maybe soon.
I turn and walk
Away.
I cry as I
Walk
Home.
My life is
Full
Of maybes
I am
Living
In
The
Here
And
Now.
I am
Ready for
Oklahoma
Now.
