My ChildHood Flame

by BrokenBarbie   Oct 21, 2008


The flame that was my childhood
has vanished into time
and all my forgotten memories
i thought id left behind
as the years rolled on through life
i did the best i could
i locked up all my secrets safe
you never understood
but deep within myself i know
my life was just a lie
until one day i burst right out
but life had passed me bye

none can truly make amends
its much to late i know
and my feelings wich i had so long
could never really show
i tried so hard to overcome
my feelings deep inside
and all the times you didn't know
the tears id never cried

and as the flame grew smaller
it was dampened by the tears
life passed me by i realized
id lost those youthful years
my parents they rejected me
for they had never tried
so save the Little girl i was
they ruined most my life
at home my family was growing up
but where empty deep inside
i felt i had to try the things
id never really tried

i got a job i found a life
pursing different dreams
but in so doing i forgot
my family it seemed
for when you tried to talk to me
id just push you aside
when you reached out to understand
id run away and hide
but now i have to pay the price
the candles burnt it seems
but how can i complete the gaps
which are my broken dreams
