Mere Existance

Questions running rampant Foremost in my mind Needing reassurance Security I just can't find Lost in the confusion As chaos reigns supreme So hopeful yet uncertian When nothing's as it seems The comfort of your arms Again, wrapped 'round me Right now, could ease these worries Make theses fears cease to be I looked into the darkness But nothing, could I find Praying every second Not one, did I let slip by This quest looms so unending Seems, forever, I've searched in vain With all emotions failing Conquered by the pain I used to know the answers To these questions in my mind No doubts, nor fears, nor worries Never one, could I find But somewhere along loves journey My faith did surely wane I know only that I must find it Or live, forever, with this pain I need your love to guide me To shield me from the cost If only you could help me In this search for what was lost i fear the price we both would pay If, at this task, I fail Would, surely, be our hearts Forever lost in hell An agony beyond endurance A pain too deep to bear Left soulless in the wake Screaming with despair All alone in misery Ever after, our souls are tainted Stained by all the memories That, together, we created As empty arms grow desperate And our hollow eyes fail to see the bitter fear and anger As it creeps up on you and me Both, smothered by the pain Discouraged by the distance Always reaching for one last chance Our love, fighting, for mere existance.....
