The Way It Is...
Listening to the words of harshness... discovering that I am not who I truly am to you... awake from dawn to dusk with your image in the forefront of my mind never giving me the chance to be me... the smoke on my breath... the rips in my faded jeans... their value to you supercede that of the look in my eyes... the devotion in my soul... asleep from dusk to dawn with your image in the forefront of my mind... reiterating words of lust through your drunken stupor... craving my touch and body through your intoxication... yet never yearning for my soul... my mind... my touch and skin through sobriety... just another drive-through for you...I wake and sleep craving you for the person you were yet no longer are... Where did you go? What stole that beauty I once saw? Who stripped the selflessness I once used to know? Trying so hard to dig deep... I've failed with the revelation consoling that I am no one for such a task... no one is but yourself... Words can not describe how much I miss the person I once fell in love with... words can say that this person is no longer here.... I deny... and grant chances... lie to myself with the fact still remaining.... scarring my inner being... the fact leaves me with the salty tears I now shed...
