Love Poem: Tidal Waves

Tidal Waves

Sort of Empty Inside
Sort of Dying Slowly
I can never, ever hide
From you and everything you do
How do I run from the tidal waves
That crash into me and you?
Our love, dark in caves
Homeless nights and pointless plights
How do we escape this burden?
How do we stop all these fights?
I hide from you endlessly
You promise you'd sing me anything
Soft and Sweet or loud and out of key
But I don't want everything
I've got a hitch in my throat 
As I stare in your deep eyes 
I've run out of hope
Tidal waves and cloudy skies
Are all that I can see
They blind me of you and our tainted love
This is the end of you and me
You're perfect, an angel from above
But So Long and Goodnight
I can't take love anymore
I can't take this pretending light
What are you mad for?
Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to meet again?
When things are better...in the end?
