A Whisper In the Darkness

I whisper into the darkness Of how I used to be And creatures of the night Whisper back to me They tell me of all their secrets Of unspoken truths and lies I listen to them praise their friends And bash the enemies they despise I listen and remember Of such a long time ago Of when I had courage and strength But those days are no more It’s like the fire burning Inside my soul Like the hurricane Blowing in my heart It’s like a pounding, pounding, pounding Pounding in my brain And someone screams to me “You will never be the same.” I think of days gone by And of how I used to be I remember when I loved her And she was in love with me If I truly learn to love again I will turn and walk away I can’t bear to think of the damage I might cause if I stay My hearts been known to hurt Those I love the most So I will disappear Like a long forgotten ghost It’s like fire that burns Deep into my soul A hurricane is blowing In my heart I feel the pounding, pounding Pounding in my brain I hear someone scream “Don’t forget my name” I fell in love with a dream Of what could have been All I have now is the memory Of what should have been All the days gone by Have been tossed into the sea Don’t ask me how I’ve been Or how I’m gonna be In the morning I open my eyes And look upon another day I forgot what happiness is And of why I can’t stay And the fire keeps a burning, Raging in my soul The hurricane blows strongly in my heart I feel the pounding, pounding, pounding, pounding, Pounding in my brain I scream to the winds, “I won’t forget your name.”
