Searching For The Truth

by HJ   May 7, 2005


My mind recalls the past, painful and real.
Left haunted, no laughter, can no longer feel.

Being close to you gave me a blissful ache, you and I belonged.
I was completely in love with you, couldn't be so wrong.

Pushing against the unknown, imprisoned my mind.
My travels have found my truth, to turn the hands of time.

The purest thing is to suffer, you would never confess.
Sitting in this play of hopes and fears, I never loved you less.

Those days I was lost and trapped, longing only to be free.
Putting up with your stories and lies, always loving you entirely.

I knew you before I knew myself, all journeys are rife.
You are the footsteps in the snow that fade, as so does my life.

Captivated and charmed my imagination, guardian of my heart.
I regret that now its to late to change, I wish to forever part.

Moments spent were like lifetimes, miss you more than I should.
But I became the ghost you no longer see, supporting all I could.

I want to get drunk tonight, remembering nothing.
Trap myself within this smoke, paralyzing this unbearable feeling.

Who will save me from this place, why was I so blind.
In every fear hides a wish, the Saviour of mankind.

Common sense is not so common,
I try to move on.
You killed a mystery that meant something, my tears have gone.

The hardest thing about searching for the truth...Is that sometimes you find it.
