Unhappily Ever After

So confused----nothing feels right but wrong All I've dealt with for so long Has blurred in with every sad thing else there is to see I don't know what to do.... I'm at a loss for everything including you Long, long ago I thought you made me for one Now others knock at heart's door........ They will go unanswered Alone in the cold of the dark With all their own little broken hearts They wait for what will never be; to hold my hand and be with me And their burdens too are more than I can bear One sweet face Is blood stain painted into my soul His addictive voice Resonates throughout my core I hear him crying I hear him screaming I see him falling With him I'll always be crying Hoarsely, wretchedly screaming Reaching out into the dark for him but feeling nothing This pain will never fit inside The grief has grown too much for me to hide Mourning for the dreams in me that died Anguish for a man who's dead to me but still alive One big happy carnival of sorrow That love will never fix Nor will tomorrow Mindless, mutilated hearts Condemned to crimson drench the earth wherever we stagger Miserably alone.... Unhappily ever after.
