You Left Me Feeling...

Like a turning head
Like a second look
Like a burning leaf of an open book
Like a pounding sea
Like a messy crime
When your eyes first met with mine

Like a broken word
Like a tragic smile
Like a thousand steps or a single mile
Like a lonely chance
Like a savage glow
When you turned and said hello

I was just about to call
There were flowers on the ceiling
You left me feeling...

Like a fading voice
Like a closing door
Like a dozen lies and a dozen more
Like a twisted tongue
Like a distant bike
When we broke out into the dark

The stars looked like burning sparks
The lights were warm but chilling
You left me feeling...
Tired, could not close my eyes
On fire, but frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless, my words could not melt
Whisper, I wanted to shout
Without you I felt...

Like a fleeting thought
Like a double eight
Like a gentle fear of a warming taste
Like a placid breath
Like a cooling blow
When you stopped and held me close

Inside I nearly froze
Your touch is almost healing
You left me feeling
Tired, could not close my eyes
On fire, but frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless, my words could not melt
Whisper, I wanted to shout
Without you I felt...

Like a setting sun
Like a last goodbye

Like an incomplete lullaby

and although I was feeling,
a sort of depression
my head began to wander
and so the recession
began within
my mind
body
and soul
and left me,
with a feeling
of blackened coal.

^ Your post reminded me of half of a poem I forgot about a year ago.
Thank you :)
