Frozen

by Dennis   Nov 14, 2007


Gazing across the cracked plains of my soul
I see a mirage of the person I used to be
No traces of my heart or the happiness you stole
This transparent illusion is all that's left of me

Nothing grows where there was once a forest
Everything good in me died when our love died
I can't stand the emptiness in my chest
When you promised me forever you lied

The clock on my wall stands still at midnight
And the hand of my soul is frozen on 'Sadness'
I no longer have the will to fight
Whether I live or die matters less

Oh...to once more taste your tender lips on mine
To run my fingers through your soft hair
Alas...the sun has set...nevermore to shine
Into my cell where I sit on my electric chair

    You need to let us know when some of these were written hun. This one scares me because I don't know if that's how you're feeling right now, or ten years ago!

    Some people live and may never find their true love. People die without feeling how strong love can be and what HURT it could bring. We are lucky to have found this person in our life. Please don't feel your love was wasted hun. Trust your feelings, since you loved this person so much, she must be very special. Keep that in your heart and when you think back, you can be happy that you have truly and deeply loved someone. Hopefully, you'll find someone that loves you like that. But first, is your heart healed? 5/5

    What a tear-jerking write Dennis. How awfully sad and alarming. I'm troubled with the fact that you are struggling of a pain in vain. I really, really hope and pray that everything is and will always be all right with you. Please, hang in there!
