Here I Am
Here I am pouring
To a vessel with many holes,
My most cherished I waste
Yet unnoticed it goes
Here I am pouring
My very best, my last
But by the ground it is swallowed
Buried, non existent
Forgiveness a commodity i find hard to give
But the only key that's bound to set me free
Am i a victim of my own pain?
Am i addicted to the hurt to keep me sane?
Will I ever find solace?
Vengance for the years i stayed silent?
Tears I cried are my evidence
Building into a strong case for your imprisonment
Are you the one? Or am I?
Locked away, in a cold dark place?
Banished from experiencing the beauty of life?
