Afterglow

Driven to madness Secluding all pain Opening the door Burning like rain My heart is reaping I must go on My soul is resonated Now that you’re gone Locked in a cell Falling from Hell Calling out your name Knowing I’ll never be the same I hate you And you hate me But you meant so much Can’t you see? I love you Don’t you care? Was I never real to you? It doesn’t even matter now I gave you so much You destroyed everything I was left without your touch Why mustn’t I hold you like I did? Slowly I’m disintegrating Seeping into nothing Like ice cream melting I embrace myself Alone Give me a break My veins are dripping Blood, pushing daisies Across my face It is time Look into my eyes Look into this disease I can’t go on In this world I behold Unto you You tied me up inside I’m against a wall, falling Entering the other phase Into another dawn Without you You aren’t coming back I’m stuck colorless In this phase Without you to fill it with the light I need Today I try by day And cry by night I have not a life Outside of my mind Anymore Why must I suffer? Why must I cry? Isn’t love supposed to feel good? That’s my only will to try My mind is soft Deceiving its encounters With death I lie here waiting For something more Expecting less than before Don’t do this to me Don’t walk away I’m left with only my reflection One heart beating In the afterglow You’re there watching Burning a hole in my heart Destroying my soul The life in me I can’t help but plead I can’t help but cry You’re more than my life You are the death of me Come unto me Walk to me Run after me And kiss me deeply Holding me in your arms Look into my eyes Tell me you need me Touch my face and pull me out of my grave Eternally You’ve murdered me Such a massacre you preformed You’re insane I did nothing to you And that’s what always leaves me here Crying Prying Trying Decaying… Dying inside Written January 25th, 2002 © on Jan 25 2002 09:43 AM PST    18 • 0 • 1
