Yearning for peace

Once again I feel my chest cave in I feel my head ache  I long for an escape  I long for peace from this life  I long to escape today  Go somewhere far away  Sometimes I dream of being someone else  Ignorant to the world around me  I do not want to be aware of … Continue reading Yearning for peace

Another dawn 

I climb out of the dark  Just to be pulled back in  Another day has dawned  Let the games begin 

Jackal with a latch 

I wake up and I wait to see  Where these next few steps will take me I am walking away from the life I lived before  To walk alone again once more  There are no serpents in the grass  Just a jackal with a latch  I must be careful as I make my move  I … Continue reading Jackal with a latch 

I see the light 

Through the ups and downs I see A bright light before me A light that beckons me to follow It is there no matter how far I have fallen It is there no matter where I go I know it will still exist This light is there Even as I fall Into the depths of … Continue reading I see the light 

Float away 

I feel my skin burn within  I feel my heart shatter  I cannot help but ask myself  Why does anything matter  I try to make it through each day  I try to hold my head high I show a smile upon my face  A smile that isn't real  All I want is peace from this … Continue reading Float away 

As my heart peels away

I watch as the sun rises  I watch as the sun sets  I can not help but wonder  Is this as good as it gets  These moments here and there  These moments when I find my way  These moments when I write to you  When I show you the way  I wear my heart on … Continue reading As my heart peels away

I’m a dreamer 

With the ups and downs I see Hills and mountains laid out before me Here and there I find a path  Here and there I find a stream  Every now and then a valley  Like a story book from a dream I cherish these moments  They are rare  When I suffer I take myself there  … Continue reading I’m a dreamer 

Remember

I exist as a shell My soul in eternal hell The pain is too much So I shut it all away Lost again today Lost my will to live I did the best I could I tried to distract I tried to talk it through I tried to push away from myself Before I slammed … Continue reading Remember

Break the silence 

Sometimes I think that I am beaten  Sometimes I think that I am done  That is when I stop and remember  Everything that you have done  These actions drive me forward  These memories that you made  You were the one I trusted  My life was in your hands  Everything I did to make you proud … Continue reading Break the silence 

I rise 

Once again I rise with hope in my heart  That today will be better than yesterday  That I will not fall into despair  That I will not long for sleep  That I will not pray for peace  I may be lost  I may be broken  I may have lost the words to say  Words I … Continue reading I rise
