and I am still
By violetflames
Imprisoned in misery
My tears of blood shed all too often
Memories have yet to be sought
My mind lives in the past
Trembling hands, lack of sleep
Living on through lasting thoughts
Daydreams keep my partial sanity
Life will drain me
Love has pained me
Memories shame me
And I am still
You enter my mind and the fading begins
The life I have known will be forever
But pain can be forgotten in your arms
Slowly the sleep comes sooner
The trembling stays inside
My thoughts are somewhat clearer
And you hold my dreams…you hold my love
Life will drain me
Love has pained me
Memories shame me
And I am still
Your careful words seep through my heart
Your gentle touch wipes my tears
I am no longer
Yet you are forever
The difference unseen
And now the pain stays secret
Undisturbed, yet never gone
Still the presence of love
Lives within us both
And will never be broken
note: I wrote this when I was like...15, its full of cliche words and what
not, but I still like it..kind of.
