Skin has gotten thicker but it still burns the same

by Behind Blue Eyes   Sep 9, 2008


So long, dear day, accompanied by my faux smiles;
hello fair shadows of the night.
you welcome my memories; so haunting.
i'm filled with pain, and feeling contrite.

the day is made for my forgetting.
the night, for reminiscing pain.
my dreams surround me through the darkness;
with memories that starkly entertain.

is anyone aware of my agony?
a loving heart; battered and bruised.
forever feeling loves bitter ending.
left broken-down and used.

a flame that had started from just a flicker;
now nothing but ashes lost in the wind.
thought it was going to last forever,
was blind until the very end.

what's left of me is a desolate life,
if you could even call it living.
above all else, i guard my heart;
scarred by the effects of my misgiving.

-------------------------------------------
dedicated to the one who throughly destroyed me;
...you'll think of me.
