Remember those days? When you though I’d let go Of the love that I had found In you, I believed in myself; The dreams that made me smile Continue to befall upon my conscience. Then, suddenly, we were lost; No map for the memories We kept for each other; It is gone but Why does forever last so long? It doesn't seem to exist anymore. A sight not to be seen By sore hearts that silently Cry in the night; Remember those days When we used to act The pages of our lives? So pure in our thoughts But never perfect. So when can we see The broken shards fly Out of existence, once more; It used to be so easy Leaving the bygones in refuge; The logics are befuddled by The wondering mind working overtime To save the strays of justice. What momentary gesture Lurks behind those orbs of emotion? Is it too hard to ask To contain the rabid fear Maddening the black lies, forlorn; Throw away the forsaken gratitude Of a happy life now morbid. Here, take it back; No more, no lack Of intimacy shall cut Through the skin sewn shut. You were a fever Destined to haunt forever The tidings of my heart. Lest I tear you apart, I will remain Bound by your chain, Condemned by the both of us.
