Lastly

by silvershoes   Jul 3, 2008


Sun haunts below my curtain feet
Protracted nights of drinking and
Still I haven't found my peace

Sometimes I disbelieve in everything
Hope keeps me hanging on
Without it, I'd be gone

Your shadow lingers on my steps
Years after precious feet
Have left a hollow path

I wish you would listen
There's just one thing to know

{ His voice makes tears stream
I feel his pain as if it were my own
He spills into my throbbing lungs
Grabs my heart until it aches
And it kills me, more than anything
It makes me feel alive }

I find solitude in silence, but
I'm scared of saying nothing
Too scared to be alone

I have discovered
It's never the right time
To whom it matters most
