Bitter Sweet Dreams
Bitter sweet dreams
As life turns another page,
the Sun rises over the hill.
the life she built around him,
Has now become a bitter pill.
Never home to be alone with her,
Loneliness she knows all to well.
All the pretty gifts he gives to her,
Home is now her prison cell.
She reaches for another,
maybe it will be different this time.
Both never truly understand,
the thoughts that rolling through in her mind.
Everyday she wakes to find,
an emptiness deep inside.
fighting a new heartache,
feelings she had for him, now have died.
Love for one blessed by God,
The other a mortal sin.
One feeds the body and her soul,
the other is there to calm,
the demons that lye within.
The romantic love she felt as a child,
she would ever see the day.
Longing to be held by them,
needing them both in different ways.
To one she gives her body to,
to give her what she needs.
The other she gave her heart,
To do with as he please.
One man to strike her body,
the other to bruise her heart.
pains she can endure,
but never torn apart.
The bruises left upon her body,
will disappear by the day.
but the pain inflicted on her heart,
remains with her today.
The pain she allows to herself,
eases the pain that Lye within.
Trying hard to divide her time,
Tween love and pain,
a lover and a friend.
Now she's all alone, both up and gone away.
One by choice, one by the hand of death,
Both still live in her heart today,
Neither one she will forget.
