Sinful Memories

I'm going to hell for ****ing you over Trading you in for another lover. Shot after shot, into your heart That's left bloody and torn apart. And somehow I still feel sane Got no soul, just devils tolls. Moving on day by day And on your knees you waste your time, and pray. It's not getting you far Street bars to hide your scars. Through blood shot eyes, you still think of me. You cry, yet you were never my man. Trying to keep me forever, scared me to death Still I'm the last wish on your breath You slip this secret to your friend As you exhale the smoke from your chest. You're a wreck And I'm the train I'm a hazard to your brain Stop thinking of me and catch your breath You're going to lose everything And nothing will be left..

its difficult to pen it down which we own unto our heart or hold on to our breath.... but that's poetry ..which makes you empty which you cant hide anything even from self. Regards Rao

Poor guy, he will survive and so will you. The fact that you gave this so much thought is proof your heart is intact and you are a caring person. Well written and sensitive depiction of a difficult situation.
