Christina Phillips Poems

Looking up into the stars of your eyes
Wondering about our life
Our life together our life apart
When it will end when it will start
...

You speak, and I hear
All the demons in your voice appear
The demon of worry the demon of pain
The demon of sorrow and the demon of strain
...

I love his eyes, because they see the good in me
I love his heart, because it gives me the kindness mine yearns for
I love his hands, because they've touched my soul, and made me whole
I love his shoulders, because they carry the burden of my worries
...

Laying in my bed, visions running through my head
I'm scared for me, I'm scared for him
I'm scared to go out on a limb
No matter what I do, no matter what I say, they will always cast me astray
...

Day by day
Lay and pray
Pray and stay
Stay and stray
...

Always blamed
Always my fault
Never the victim
Always the problem
...
