Forsaken

It’s been four months and yet it seems like yesterday
That you left me standing at the door
I have searched every corner, every moment
Hoping to see you just once more

How do I erase those long nights
Spent in your embrace looking at the sky
Fearing what tomorrow might take away
Knowing that you wouldn’t just go by

No, you weren’t like the dozen others
Who had nothing to offer but their lies
And yet I was right there, at the door again
How could you walk away despite my cries

I won’t complain of what you took with you
My voice, my ability to love, my soul
I see new hands outstretched to hold me
A beating heart that could make me whole

Yet every night I stand by the door
Waiting to hear your footsteps drawing near
Yet hoping you are warm in your bed, asleep
Totally unaware of what happened to someone you once held dear

Overload!

Too many thoughts clog the mind
Too much noise to peace here find

Too many pieces of broken hopes
Too much darkness, the soul gropes

Too many crossroads confuse the brain
Too many heartaches make the heart strain

Too many emotions unfurling at a time
Too many words to continue the mime

Too many things to say to be at ease
Too many lines anyways in this piece

Cry

There is so much left to say
But you don't have the time
So even if I call you up
You don't respond, you let the phone chime

Nothing stops from you from life
Curl up and sleep every night
Dream the glorious dreams of tomorrow
You don't have to see me fail the fight

I thought I wouldn't let you know
The pain, the suffering that you left behind
Why should I feed your ego
And anyways, you never seem to mind

But I want to see you rejoice, celebrate
Your pompous existence against my heart
Live your life, for you have taken mine
My voice, my soul... lost, till death sets does me part
