Hopeless and Filled With Heartache

Tell me why doe’s the wind blow, When it seems that almost anything can over power this boat, The waves rise slowly and surely a storm is on its way, A day of innocence equating beauty, For tomorrow may fall, And today is already gone, I've decided that tonight is the night, That I set love aside, This whole time we're provoking each other in a blinding violence, The ship rocked and I plummeted into the sea, And you dove after me, But now you know that I’m cold, The mast snaps and the ship floods, We wash up on a shore and you seek us shelter, Crying out my name you try to resuscitate me, Keep your hands on my chest and wait for a beat, I'll keep your trust in my arms and pain in my feet We will all fall in the end. As the time to rise approaches No one will take responsibility So tell me why does the wind blow? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this poem i give credit to 4 bands for assisting me with the words I could not find. 1.Our Last Night 2.As I Lay Dying 3.Dance Gavin Dance 4.As Blood Runs Black I Hope you enjoyed it
