memories surround me - catch me
the image of your face
the smell of perfume
it seems to fill the air
I can almost feel your hair
a single tear escapes my eye
my soul cries out to the world
my body longs for your gentle touch
the rain sets in
the softness of nature
only my heart
it never heals
as memories of you catch me
the night begins, merciless
there is no escape
drugs and TV fog your mind
resist the temptation
they hit me with all their might
my soul screams out
my broken heart bleeds its toll
a new day begins
tonight
I know
the memories will come again
