How dare

by Georgina Gilbert   Jun 24, 2004


A threatened mile,
I’ve walked and run,
I never said I’d do this,
But look what I’ve become,
You were more than I thought,
I could ever feel,
A burning hope,
For something that’s real,

How dare,
Anyone dig your grave,
You were all and everything,
I knew I couldn’t save,
How dare,
Anyone call you theirs,
You were what I loved,
It’s not like anyone cares,

Tears fill my eyes,
As I step outside the door,
I lie there at night,
I can’t hear your breathing anymore,
I’m feeling so empty,
So full of despair,
I get so many touches,
But none of them care,

Take away what’s left,
For I know it’s nothing much,
I’d sell my heart,
My soul,
For another final touch,

For my simple mistake,
Gave them what they desired,
I know I could lie,
But it sets my heart on fire,
And the darkest of shadows,
Leaves me so unsure,
Of everything around me,
Lets hope they find a cure,
for me.
