My Craves

Desperation travels my marrows, still breath stealing all my tomorrows the blessing of your love I couldn't show whirling and coiling me up like tornadoes dispirited in my shadow come save me now, I cry a billion folds if you see my face again, you wouldn't know to where have gone all of my rainbows. This place is not a home, no colours in my world, if there’s one place I know, it wouldn't lead me home goodbye to all my folks I’m so frail and cold the more I try to hold, my breath goes so slow I wouldn't know, I wouldn't know, I wouldn't know... if I could see you once more. Desperation travels my marrows, so shameful; I still dwell in underworld and myself I can’t find in the mirror the silent voice from an underdog, screams "free my soul" in muted mode it’s hard to die or to live, now I know still in continuous run from my shadow. This fate is from above? I want to know I, I, I want to know This heavy load bends me low ooh, presses me low! will I be freed of this woe; of the wasteful life that I behold? I, I, I want to know What are these addles and muddled riddles? I wouldn't know, I, I, I wouldn't know If I could love you once more? Desperation travels my marrows it so hurts, please let me go I want to go, oh, oh let me go to find my shadow from below this way, that way in a circle in a lifetime rigmarole and I think there’s no way to go

Thanks so much. I've been writing for quiet a while, but I've not made a print publication yet.
