Need to Leave

by rob   Dec 1, 2005


Blasted and barren landscape surrounding my heart. Leaving me breathless and torn apart. Stranded and alone on this isle of pain. Agony encroaching and driving me insane. Trying to find a way to cope. Seeking to find a way to cling to hope. Loneliness and despair like a second skin. Anger and hatred a life lived in sin. Outcast from the work, shunned by all. Left alone, no friends, no family, alone I fall. Never sharing, just enduring. Always hurting, never imploring. Lost, afraid, lonely, in a daze. Trying so hard to leave this maze. I want out, free to live. I want out, to share the love I have to give.But at the slightest hurt to my heart, I run and hide and have to restart. I'm weak and scared, lost to the one. I'm crying inside and I want to run. She tells me to move on, but if she could feel what I felt she'd know that would be wrong. Always present in my mind. A love like hers I'll never find. She tells me I've so much to give and I deserve the best. But I hold her love sacred above the rest. My heart aches when I hear her voice. But when I'm without her I've no choice. So I hold her dear, in my dreams that I have where she is near. I hold her in my arms and share my fears. She holds me back and kisses away my tears. And it hurts so bad when reality kicks in. I look at this love, this game, this life and I can't win. I try hard to forget how I feel, to close off my heart so it can heal So I cower and hide and burn myself out. Enduring my heartache without a shout.
