Fresh Start

What is this? 
All shiny and new
Yet fear creeps in 
Although not of you

For the wound is still fresh
Body, soul and heart 
But chaotic mind now ready
For a new start 

Flesh wounds have healed
Memories distant 
Scars however remain 
Reminders of pain

The story continues
White knight in sight
Contentment and comfort 
A feeling of right

Demons still present 
Continue to whisper 
"You are a mess love"
"No good, a disaster"

I am afraid dear 
That sense may prevail
And you no longer see
Through rose tinted glasses

The feeling inside 
Like none can compare 
Shrivels and dies
At the prospect

Not ready to give up 
Even during grey skies 
On genuine true
Lovely blue eyes

Loss

Losing the light 
The will, the hope 
Darkness surrounds, envelopes 
Sucking the air
The life from my lungs
See there is nothing here love 
But empty shells 
Alone to function 
In that warm embrace 

That time again has come love 
Amongst the masses 
Rolling on
Long and twisted roads 
You feel their breath 
Smell their essence 
And all the while 
I am alone 

The warmth has faded 
A distant tingle 
Memory skin only 
Has of you 
Unsteady is the mind 
Heart and soul bared 
Ruthlessly dragged 
Along gravel track roads. 

Scars will fade 
Perhaps memory too 
But the hearts to remember 
The spirit of you 
I will never be far love 
No distance will matter 
I am with you forever 
Lest? Love is a tatter
