Living Ghost

This is me An imperfect soul Doing my best to get along Trying desperately to be a better man All I want is peace But the wars never cease Ive come to realize There is no release I beg, I plead For every need So very tired Of how my heart bleeds Searching for answers Rooting thru the cancer that is my life Can you accept my failures Can you accept me as me Love is supposed to be unconditional Never knew it was so one -sided This ship has floundered Can it be righted? How can love ever last When your the ghost that haunts my past?

- It feels like you have a painful time .... like a sinking ship in large waves - Described with deep emotion - when you feel that you have reached the bottom there is only one way to go: up / forward - Your heart is wounded - but can love again - Wishing you all the best, Carl!! - oxox // Anne-Lise :)
