| how did you do it create that mystic veil covering all that you are all that you claim to be your memory still seeps through my brain with haunting acclamation and i see the beast you have become your heart that was never there your feelings - always empty. yet if you cut off a person's arm they still dream that its there twitching, they can feel it you were my arm you left me in carnage and so alone with the pain picking up the pieces so i find myself at your bedside shattered pieces in my hand waiting for you to make them whole again waiting for you to make things right again knowing you won't stay the night again our purity melted away to corruption illuminating through this silent eruption i need to stop waking in the night your voice ringing in my ears almost feeling your arms wrapped around me again just let your being surround me again to personify you holds no truth in my heart to let yourself feel things would rip you apart so i wonder where do i start? somewhere, sometime when day breaks, perhaps that place where silence ends and the sullen still begins so i won't wake up in a cold sweat your taste in my mouth your name on my lips emptiness doesn't compensate for love but you made it work but it's broken now too late to fix it just pray i can live it down. the stars, my true solace comfort me in the night when you are not around when you stole my heart like a thief in the night i lay down alone and watch the fire in the skies. 5/17/01 |
