Lost without you Keep fighting, the darkness Cast upon my soul, waiting for a touch To shatter, my prison-trapped mind Tears stream outwards, forming rivers of grief Loneliness, grasping air that I breathe A vessel awaits, a chance of escape Dreams coat walls, as I travel back to mind Images flickering, changing all the time Still yet to discover, the meanings they hide A distant memory, flickers into sight The image frozen still, stuck in time There you walk, barefoot brushing the dust Past the scattered roses, a blood stained floor As you approach, my palms flow sweat Breathing heavily, eyes closed tight Wanting your touch, yet pushing you away You’re the reason, I feel this pain inside Yet you still, keep my soul alive The hatred I feel, a forgotten memory brought back to life, each time i try to reclaim The feelings of happiness, which covers the pain inside...

You like to offset one thing with another. Like...this is this, that is that. Kinda what I do. I've learned that if you balance this with a single line of your notion...it gives the reader time to dwell on what you've written instead of passing it by so quickly. I liked it though..really brought back memories. |
