Memories of Mine

What was it you said to me? "I love you"? No, perhaps "I miss you"? I can't recall at all Though I remember your smile Or was it a frown? I called you mother While you call me swine Such a beautiful pain Yet when your pain becomes mine I smile I feel the air tighten its grip Along my fingers, the blood shall drip A crimson kind of love Like a cliff, slowly eaten away by the waves Something once beautiful Becomes the blood on my lips Though as a ghost, may I forever lay Teary-eyed For father became an angel And you became mine My only resurrection The only person to make me smile My only parent You watched me tear apart my mind Needing just one reason Why I said I loved you And all you say to me is, "I wish you weren't mine"
