| Sadness is beautiful Lonliness is tragical For the everyday world Can't calm my heart I sit and imagine Of worlds far away Blue skies, no worries Now everything's gray My mind is imprisioned By memories long ago And it rips me apart That I can't stand up and reach for the doorknob Or say the three words I know will save me And I may never know you But I know the struggle of wanting to die How you try to hide the truth And though our paths may never cross I know the delicate art Of playing with 'toys' that kill me inside And if I never see you again My heart will ache and yearn But you'll be the reason I'll be alive Yet that won't be the case For we'll both survive This hell we know as life Teardrops stain writings Of dreams long ago And my mind paces its confinements For I fear I can't escape the past - Jacqueline Audrey |
