Memories

Sitting in the darkness, Staring out at the cold
Tears sliding down my face, A secret sadness told
The velvet cloak of midnight, Stirring restlessly
The deepness of sweet slumber, Never comes to me
Searching for the answers, Crying in despair
Making me go crazy, Pulling at my hair
Never knowing what to think, What to do or say
Searching my soul desperately, Searching for the way
Confusion and bewilderment, What kind of life is this?
Heavy blanket of depression, Nightmares must exist
This loss of those you love, Hysteria complete
The lies are told so frequently, The feeling of deceit
The hate and anger build inside, Ready to explode
The knife calls to me, so temptingly, I try to choose that road
I wake up on the icy floor, Remembering my dream
My tears have dried upon my cheeks, Though bitter as they seem
I shake and shiver violently, My heart's completely worn
This time I'll get through this, Although my soul is torn
Scars will heal, but memories live on

I love you, my friend. You're in my heart forever.
