In Loving Memory

I buried my heart last night. Buried it in the dirt of hatred, anguish and disception. I had to burry my heart last night, It had suffered for far too long, it was time for it to be laid to rest. Laid to rest to be free of pain, Free of loneliness, Free of lies. But then my tears showed up uninvited, and flooded out the funeral. Leaving me there to drown in them, To drown in my sorrow. Struggling to come up, Struggling to stay up, Struggling to stay alive. That was the last night I cried my last cry, Wept my last tears. My soul grew dark and dense, The place where my heart once was became hollow and cold. No feelings being shared and felt, No love being given nor received. Living and dieing all at one time. Maybe now my heart can finally rest in peace. But I'm still a suffering victim.
