Engulfed

Engulfed by flames
Of emotions past
A look, a touch
A gentle loving smile
Caress me awhile
It's too much
I'll not ask
My hope that soars
Like an eagle on fire
Thro' thick black skies
Burst into flames
Come crashing down
Curling up
Ready to die
Deep on the mire
Engulfed by flames
Of emotions past.

Tears

A waterfall of fear, Drips in every tear. A torrential tear thunder, Is filled with so much wonder. A thousand spiky lies, Weaves its way into cries. Every piece of pain, Is totaled in a tear-rain.

If I follow my heart, Will I get to where I need to be. Or will I still be stuck in sorrow, And burdened with my need. Can I trust my mind, Without starting a war with my heart.

The Worst Feeling.

When you want to shout your anger, Too scared for face-to-face, When you're sick of putting up with her, Want to put her in her place.

Eyes

Look into my eyes. Tell me what you see. It won't be happy. It won't be pretty. The way I act. Makes me seem happy. It makes me seem fine. But look into my eyes. There you will see. See the hurt.

Sick

Sick of all the deceit and lies,. sick of feeling low and missing the highs,. sick of hearing the awful truth,. sick of time robbing me of my youth,. sick of feeling I have no use,.

I. Love. You.

Pain. I didn't know how to deal with pain. With hunger and self gain. They did this. Saw me in pain. But they were vain. They left me in the rain. Left me to wallow in my self pity.

I Wish I Wish

I wish I could be. The real me. I wish you could see. What affect you have on me. I wish everything was rosy. And everyone came up smelling of posies. I wish your words didn't linger.

Regrets Promotion

Eyes burning with the troubles, With every tear they seem to double. Thoughts multiplying by the second, As if each one is being beckoned. Stinging on my dry skin... Is this how I pay for this 'sin'.
