Pin Cushion

Can you feel the setting sun on your face?
Can you feel the wind dancing in your hair?
Do you hear the soft whispers of the water tumbling ahead?
Does the hum of the bee yards below on the mountain side vibrate your ear?
If no one knows you, when you leave you won't have a chance to be forgotten.
Take your unwanted ideas, desires & needs and pin them to my skin.
My eyes can hold the years of disappointment and they are here for all to see.
Every fear you express my heart will soak up.
How do you hold on to someone you've already chosen to hold on to forever?
Maybe you can't.
We don't have as many choices as we'd like to think we do.
I am more than all the choices in the world but can't give myself away.
