The Need To Understand
I'm lost inside a world of pain of anguish and despair.
Sorrow is the reason why I'm so afraid to care.
Your gentle lies have left their mark.
They scared me for life.
While deception and betrayal was your knife.
As remorsefulness eludes your heart,
And me begging for your love with every plea.
A coldness that forever protects your cold and harden soul rejects my agony.
The need to touch your face.
The need to feel your warm embrace.
The need to dry your tears,
And chase away all your fears.
The need to hold your thighs and hips.
The need to taste your soft sweet lips.
The need to hear your voice and whisper in your ears.
The need to show you that I still care.
The need to feel your touch,
And tell you I love you so much.
But the need has gone away replaced by loneliness and emptiness.
So sad that my heart has closed itself.
With a broken heart poisoned by your hopes and dreams.
With my memories of us the only truth it seems.
Now all I have inside for you has washed away like a heap of sand.
All I have left is one last need and that's the need to understand.
