My Words
Sitting here bored out of my mind
I think back to better days left behind
I only wish to not be so leery
As my body gets quite weary
And my eyes begin to close
As they close the scene around me changes
And everything quickly rearranges
Making it all seem so blurry
Like surrounded by quick falling flurries
Then everything gets quite numb
The numbness leads to a dark denial
Leaving me without that smile
That smile that pushed me to be dreaming
Inside a head that’s always screaming
Screaming for the falling rapture known today as life
For this life that seems so endless
This life that leaves your body listless
Makes me wonder why we wonder
Sitting here to rot and ponder
I hit my knees wanting forgiveness
For making life such an extreme mess
For causing others pain and sorrow
For being to weak to live till the morrow
And as my pleading comes to end
Everything grows dark again
An echoing silence then fills my head
Like all my thoughts were painted and bled
For in my head filled utter black
A blackness that had held me back
And then a light shined from afar
Breaking my silence and deaths bar
My eyes opened to the warmth of you smile
The smile they seemed to last for miles
And the beauties of your soft sweet kiss
That always made each day the best
Leaving me knowing of that love inside
The love I tried so hard to hide
The love that brought me here to you
Leaving me loving everything you do.
