Im Not Myself Here Anymore

House to home, then back again We turned from lovers into friends And this bed feels even colder When you lay down Its like our smiles have turned around On every picture in this house And I know you’ll feel the blow If I go I’m not myself here anymore You’re like a wall that I talk to You keep slamming the door I once thought I loved you Now I’m not so sure I’m not myself here anymore I’ve sacrificed my own paradise Cause living without love is no kind of life I’d much rather sleep or do all the chores I’m not myself here anymore I’m not myself here anymore You’re like a wall that I talk to You keep slamming the door I once thought I loved you Now I’m not so sure I’m not myself here anymore The only reason we stay Is to keep a smile on one face I’m not myself here anymore I’m not myself here anymore

Thank you both for your kind words. If people can relate I’ve hit my mark.

Wow, that was impressive, sounds like something I can relate to. I felt a person locked I'm their own mind. I too settled in life, however I'm more than just a slave to others, or am I? Oh, well, this is a very good write. Hope to read more from you. Linda
