These claws of reality
I can take no more
These blood-stained dreams
Leave me battered and sore.
Can't close my eyes
And try to run away
Knowing if I can hold on
The night turns to day.
This madness inside me
Screams without a sound
Making my ears bleed
In my dreams they are loud.
I reach for you
But you're not there
Do you taste my pain
Or do you even care?
Concrete walls deceive me
And close me in
Have I lost you now
I can't take this again.
Eyes wide with wonder
Bloodshot and dry
Too tired no strength
Too sad to cry.
The blood cold and sticky
Leaks from my veins
Welcome to my world
Where disappointment reigns.
I call to you pleadingly
Yet nothing lies beyond
For when I opened my eyes
I knew you'd be gone.

Dry your tears
And hold your head high
She has not left
Nor said her "good-byes"
She is always there
Even when not in sight
She is there with the rising sun
Making your days so bright
She thinks you are an angel
Sent from the heavens above
Giving her your heart
Showering her with your love
Just remember she's there
And that she really cares
Not being with you
Is something she cant bare
So look onto the future
And all the joys to come
Soon you will be together
Laughing and having fun


Lucky girl you have there!  


No person is worth your tears, and the only one that is ...... will never make you cry

Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmm.... Great work here, but I'd like to know what was going through your head when you wrote it.
