Trying to Heal, but We Can't Heal

Tears fall like rain upon my soul As I search for solace, a place to call whole But like a mirage, it vanishes in air Leaving me shattered, with no one to care I try to heal, but wounds run too deep Memories of joy, now taunt me in sleep Echoes of laughter, now a haunting sigh Reminding me of what I'll never deny The ache within, a hollowed space A grief so profound, it cannot be replaced I yearn to mend, to stitch and to bind But the fragments of my heart, forever left behind In darkness, I search for the light A guiding star, to lead me through the night But like a fleeting dream, it disappears from sight Leaving me lost, in this endless fight I try to heal, but scars won't fade A constant reminder, of the love that's been made To let go, to move on, to find my way But the heart, it remembers, night and day Oh, the agony, of trying to heal When the hurt, it still feels so real Like an open wound, that refuses to close A sorrow so piercing, it forever grows In this abyss, I'm left to atone For the love, the loss, the memories I've known But like autumn leaves, they wither and fall And I'm left with nothing, but this hollow call I try to heal, but we can't heal For some wounds, they forever will reveal The depth of our pain, the weight of our grief A sorrow so strong, it forever will leave.
