The Tomb

Locked inside this cold, dark place,
Where nothing warms you through,
A heart still beats inside a chest,
Though death's your dream come true.

Buried deep beneath the pain,
Of all you've loved and lost,
The happiness you just can't see,
Cloaked behind the frost.

Frozen tears of bitterness,
That melt into the mind,
Tainting life, the sweetest fruit,
We ever come to find.

Lips have known the taste of love,
Eyes have seen what's real,
Hands of warmth have touched the soul,
You try so, to conceal.

This one moment steals it all,
You give in to the fear,
You shy away from everything,
That wishes to come near.

Buried in a lonely grave,
You dug inside your mind,
Haunted by the misery,
You just won't leave behind.
