Candles glimmer along the walls as shadows dance and play,
Reminding me of such an image of non-existing yesterdays.
This venom that lives inside my heart, my soul shall never wake,
I'll sleep forever more in dream, I'll die here on this stake.
To bleed reality is like absorbing ignorance or perhaps hope through your
veigns,
As it streams in rivers of sorrow that snake away with the rain.
Depravation is only half of sorrow... sorrow... a bird that cannot fly,
Sorrow... sorrow, a man who cannot live and has but one wish to die.
I am not a weeper, I mourn for no such loss,
And I burry hands in empty pockets for I have paid the cost.
I am not a magician who can take away the pain,
Sorrow is above all else what forever remains.
I laugh with a joy that covers embedded fear,
And I turn my face away often mistook with cheer.
I wrap my arms around myself to show comfort and all,
When inside I am dieing and my soul is about to fall.
I hold my stance, I swallow these tears, and look on to
the morrow,
If invisibility were but a sheet I'd pull it over my head in sorrow.
What is a touch that cannot bring a flower to shatter a stone?
What is a heart that cannot be guilt-free unless it is alone.
What is a mind that cannot think without others butting in...
Where are you when all of your doings are mistakes, eternal sins.
Love does not hide under a rock or grow within the trees,
But it's power can knock you flat on your face for it stikes on wounded
knees.
Hide me from such an emotion, hide me from it's power,
My body, my mind, my soul is crushed beneath it's crumbled tower.
