Tsunami

He knows how his voice nearly cripples me
so he calls to send shocks to my heart
but I must pretend it doesn't overtake me
keeping constant that we are apart.

He knows I love him and always will
just can't be with him, not right now
I figure if we were meant to be
we will get together someday, somehow.

It's the right love at the wrong time
don't understand why it happens like this
memories rumble underneath me
his voice reminds me how much I miss

being with him, his touch, his kiss
the way he laughs, the things I adore
but I must pretend it doesn't overtake me
because we aren't together anymore.

His voice
the underwater earthquake.
My heart
a giant wall.
I must not break.
