Peering into the window The scene beyond the glass Brings tears to my eyes The pain burns in my throat As I hold back the sobs

My heart yearns My memory flooding my head Images gloating of funs to be had Displaying first hand reminders The taste

I don’t know where to start Too much to say So much more to lose I know what I am risking But I don’t have a choice

I don’t want to see. How empty I am on the inside. My heart, shattered. My spirit, broken. My soul, torn.

You hide behind your big smile But I know you wear a mask And I see the lies you hide I see the scarred fragile soul Cracking beneath the weight.

The radiant crescent moon illumina… Transforming the clear azure water… The gentle evening breeze sending… I stand above my reflection, watch… A stranger stares back at me, her…

Waking in a cold sweat Choking for breathe Scared to death The shadows prancing In the darkness

My ceiling is dreary The white paint Paled from the years Flaking and peeling I stare morbidly content

Stupid Boy I wish you could have seen How much you were loved Maybe if you had known... Things could have been different

Night has fallen Once again Leaving me alone With my thoughts Their incessant prattle

The morning sun swings and twirls Drawing in the vacant streets Singing songs of love and joy She tries to wake the dead.

You don’t deserve this attention You’re not worth the time of day! My heart may be crushed Evident from my bleeding tears My sadness flooding my resolve
