Why Will You Not Leave Me
Why won't you leave me
I beg and plead for this sadness to go
I pray and hope for this anger to subside
I dream and yearn for these thoughts to drain out
Once I loved you,we were family are family
But the pain you have caused me
It's anger and fury still resides in me and haunts my tender mind in my dreams
It's vengeance I try slowly to subdue
And yet do you ever think about the tears you have evoked in me
Do you think about the scars that linger deep in my humble body
The blemishes of their residing hopelessness
The seed of such hate and anger,pain and despair,sorrow and sadness
Had I not yet seen but it is embedded in me I fear in my soul
Memories that grab me by a gigantic force when I in thoughtlessness reside
Bring upon me the fear of never being free
When you so lightly as if by the wind remind me of those painfilled days
When I feel the footsteps of those dark times gone by hollow the ground behind me
Oh how I wish I could let you go, unburden this burden
Know the whisper of forgiveness
Perhaps then I would be restful in my slumber
And alive in my dreams
For you shall no longer hurt me by memories and heartache
That had never known the words I'm sorry
And I will let be in my secret corner of my heart,my mind,my soul
For I will be set free.
