That One Ear
A late night or early morning post will never be seen, let alone read if ever found
That one ear
That one ear
Can't hear how much I've cried
Those two eyes
Can't see how much I've tried
That one heart
Can't seem to feel how much my heart has loved
Still love
That one ear
Doesn't hear how loud I've screamed
Those two eyes
Doesn't see the pain I hide
That one heart
Doesn't feel how much I've loved
I fight and fight again
Still that head is turned again
I cried and cried again
Still those shoulders shrug again
I confess
I'm still in love
But....
It's ignored again
No response
Just that one ear
That one ear that heard
Kept silent
That mouth uttered no word
Staying on the line
Won't tell me the truth
Nor tell me if that heart feels the same
I've been heard
But there were no words
Can't tell if that heart still cares
Can't tell if those eyes still stare
Can't tell if that ear still hears....
Still listens
Because that dear
Doesn't know I care
Doesn't know I still love
Doesn't know that I cry
Doesn't know what made me great
Nor what made me weak
Am I just a thing that ear hears
Am I just a thing that heart use to love
Am I just a thing those eyes use to gaze at
Am I just a fleeting thing
That use to be something in those eyes
Now is nothing in that heart?
That one ear
Those two eyes
That one heart
......doesn't seem to see
The gem in my hand....shattering
My blue skin paling
And my one eye tearing
Feels like one of me
Now this light is fading
Because....
Our fusion hasn't been....
Existing
That one ear
Can't hear how much I've cried
Those two eyes
Can't see how much I've tried
That one heart
Can't seem to feel how much my heart has loved
Still love
