Late Night Meanderings
I know that it's not me
But the truth hurts inside
I often think that if I saw you
I could see it in your eyes
I'm still having such a hard time
Wrapping my mind around this loss
One way feelings don't mean a damn thing
This hurting pain becomes the cost
I avoid you, yet it's so tough
I'd love to hear you everyday
A voice that brings so much happiness
And puts a smile upon my face
You may claim that it's not you
But I know that it's not me
These feelings held upon my inside
Become a prison you can't see
Yesterday means little: without today
Today means nothing without tomorrow
I try so hard to show my love, but my mind's not strong enough
Cause it's been denied by all my sorrow
So as I'm lying on my pillow
Life's last few breaths upon my hands
Please know my feelings are but memories
And it was you, like it's always been
There's no today without tomorrow........
