Sadness Never Expires

Inside my eyes dwell tears of pain Which flood my sheets with salty rain Sure, yes I know that I am sane These memories are locked tight within my brain Limited thoughts parade around my corroded mind Happiness lost; I just can’t seem to find Hurtful images of you are cold and unkind Suffering, decaying, just leave me behind Swaying to the dismal loneliness of my breath Because I know there’s nothing else left You were my life, but now you are gone Leaving me frail and forced to move on I’ve never been so hurt in my life You took up my hand and sliced my heart with a knife You struck it so deep; it burns like fire Bleeding out my pain; my sadness never expires Never ending torment, I feel alone Empty with lag; I’m not in the zone How could you hurt me… Don’t you feel bad? Watching me squirm and seeing me sad? Ah what’s the point? You don’t care about me Look what you’ve done… Can your empty eyes see? My future is abysmal for crying out loud I have lost everything for I am not proud I thought you forgave me; that is what you said My life is now wasted; I might as well be dead I can’t go to certain places without thinking of you It has all been ruined; what else can I do? Yes I know I miss you, but I wish we never met I want to just die; so I could just forget Still this misery has got its grip, pulling me to the floor Still depressed all the time and rotting at the core
