Untitled-3 8-27-05
Intense does my heart ache
I bleed red just like you
I cry real tears like everyone
I breathe in deep the ocean air
I put everything I had at stake
I bet against the devil for you
Retreating , I hide in darkness from everyone
Nestled in silence I stare
Darkness fills my senses
Dampness consumes me
The pain so intense I cry
Tears of sorrow and grief I hide
My heart gripped with fear since
You have mutilated me
My thoughts drift away like a sigh
In this tortured prison where I abide.
