'mortuary'

hiding in this barren world I have locked myself away completely from every aspect of this life I whisper through who are you to mirror my own destruction another assumption of reflection I shield you from my path I can't breathe with your eyes following me haunting me with images of regret I am lost, I am lonely, I am completely unframed swelling in my veins this undying contempt I'm alone in my own brand of pain pick me up and deposit me recycled extract yourself unwanted your presence defeats me from within I committed your hate to memory no need for you to keep wandering here rubbing that poison in I cast myself aside making way for your needs hoping the self sacrifice I offer would appease you of my soul but you are not content with mere pieces I am drained - I have nothing left to live I bleed your inadequacies I no longer feel the pain the hate that I know from you devours the love that shared our story the love that I know of you makes the blood flow even faster cauterize this wound I can no longer stay alert I have no more faith in this existence you have bled me of my worth and this shell of mine will be peaceful if you'll only take this hint they've moved us to the basement this corpse no longer gives let me sleep let me sleep let me sleepanother it's not all true darling I promise only a moment in time when you scare away my muse you leave these scars behind Written February 9th, 2002 © on Feb 08 2002 03:56 PM PST    0 • 18 • 8
