Drips of Tears'
Drips of Tears'
There I was alone
In a dark place far from home
Crying...
Pleading...
Afraid with my heart bleeding...
Will you take my hand
Dry these tears
or leave me alone with the man in the mirror
Suddenly
I hear in the distance
Shadows lurking whispering in the night
Errupting my deepest fears
as
Timid silence lingers about
I'm
In a room of emptiness filled with doubt
Restless was a mind dreaming of sleep
laying in bed with torment
Hoping and praying these demons I will defeat
Dismembering every wicked thought
That ever came near me
Inside creeping
affecting and turning my mind almost blind
Distorted by history...
A nightmarish scar
Still
I know that I have the strength to make it back home
Without fatal injury or alarm!!!
