The Presence of Absence

Haunted by the presence of Absence Unfair judgment has been whispered in my hungry ear Unwanted in my own home – seeking repentance I will break free…until then, I won’t shed a tear and I shall not fear…for healing’s near Haunted by the presence of Absence Live life like it’s our last…forget about yesterday’s regrets and pain Wanted in the arms of forgiveness and sustenance In the middle of nowhere, I find out that I’m lost in a multitude…the thought of it drives me insane Haunted by the presence of Absence I worshiped the words that you spoke every time we messaged each other Taunted by the past nightmares…I’m drunk on your elegant essence I’m wondering who’s going to save me from myself? Maybe I’ll just rely on my Father Haunted by the presence of Absence I’m perfectly imperfect and you’re flawlessly flawed…nothing makes sense anymore Daunted by the demons in my mind, telling me that you are of no significance In the end of the Chapter, I guess I had to sacrifice myself for your precious life that I so much adore…there is a beginning to explore, so don’t give up…for there’s hope and freedom in store that will enlighten you to the core…illuminate us, oh Lord of Accord, so you and I can soar together as one once more…………
