Rise Above This Moment
©Jerry Axson

Standing alone in this empty room,
just the two of us swaying,
it’s down to the obvious girl,
and I don’t mind saying,
Red roses and little candy hearts -
won’t keep this love alive,
it takes more than good intentions -
how will we survive???

I don’t want to...
you don’t want to...
we will never...
I can’t tell you...
you won’t tell me...
we don’t seem to...
How I wish we could rise above this moment...

Slowly as you move away from me,
I release my hold,
let’s not stand in the way of this thing,
the house of cards begins to fold,
One more time around my heart -
for old times sake,
one more kiss to remember by -
before our hearts break...
