Sweet Repose

By natb17

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What can I say When it's all been done? Like my moonlit dreams Remain crushed by the sun And so goes the words Set in your way A dead bed of roses And I'm so ashamed... My coast is clear When you're out of mind I'm rocked in the cradle Of my own kind And you say I'm weak When I'm feeling strong So strongly in love Just leave me alone.... Here once again someones slowing me down I just wanna make it home. My love wasn't one for the heart to unhand Can you understand... when I wish you Sweet Repose. So treat me unstable Like the clouds above my head You tell me it's true Then you leave me... There's no record playing and there's writing on the wall There's nothing here but these memories.. Memories of regret.... Here once again someones slowing me down I just wanna make it home. My love wasn't one for the heart to unhand Can you understand? Now and again you'll be calling my name I'll be walking alone.. What words put me through you were never a man! Can you understand When I wish you.. Cause I don't need you... And I wish you sweet repose. Written March 18th, 2002 © on Mar 18 2002 02:50 PM PST   20 • 8 • 1
