Entrapment
My heart burns like fire on a blistering night and yet it is still too cold to melt the chains you confined me in.
Eyes closed
Black and grey
The continuous sound of scratching like bloodied fingers embedded in an impenetrable wall.
No escape
Bloodshot eyes
Sleepless nights
Monotonous speeches
Don't try to remember whats been written before
Skin aches
Burns like acid
Cover me I'm thorns to ease the pain
Nothing can take it away
Nothing can take away from what you do to me
Each thorn has a rose or so i pleaded to believe
Each tear sparkles as it falls
Each black night has a star
You were mine...
I can't get away
I would give the world
Everything! Every breath
Every drop, every shadow...
Every memory to have never heard you say...
I love you!
For all the pain in the world, I'm trapped...
Helpless...
Letting go seems nothing short of a death penalty.
Each look, each smile, each second I wait is a dagger in my heart...
Still I cannot let go! You have the key to my shackles. You are the moon in my blackest of nights.
Helpless
Inches from death i can't let go...
