Dark side of the Moon

Looking outside the window

Everything seemed like a reminder of sorrows

Draping crescent echoed heart that is hollow

Silent cries claws in the serene glow

Carefully you took your steps and fled

Leaving behind promises so broken

Nothing seems to feel right anymore

Lest for the chaos, turmoil that ricocheted in disarray

You stumbled in and bring wonders into my life

And left and strike me down just as fast

I was so unwell before

And yet so torn down again before I’m given the chance to heal

Tell me

What are words if you really don’t mean them when you say them?

What are words if they are only for good times then they are gone?

Do you even know?

Do you even care?

Had you known that the pain dwells in the heart?

Had you known that the memories haunt like nightmares?

Had you known that this is a torture unlike any other?

Had you known that I still care, from the bottom of my heart??

As I lay dying

I try to reach for the hand that holds

For the shoulder that is always there

For the ear that listens

For the heart that understands

For the voices that soothes

For the comfort that calms my restless heart.

But little did I know

That they are no longer there

And that I can only stare at my own death looking back at me

Stealing bits of me day by day

Like a fish dying in an ocean that forsakes it.

And little did I know

That this little bittersweet trance

Kills me inside out

Breaks me down and build me up

A freak that smiles while hurting
