Heartburn

By: Robert McCreadie
Love's lessons start so sweet
Now these sands blister my feet
I cannot stand this heat
of Time . . .

This love began to rust
My whole world blows into dust
I gain my sense, disgust
"I'm sorry . . ."

Life stands to be so cruel
No more I can smell you
And I drown inside the pool
of Memory . . .

No matter where you go,
my heart's inside you
Now that you are gone,
I feel inside you

I don't know why I see
This boy cannot be me
I once was filled with glee
so happy . . .

I feel my pain once more
My eyes are on the floor
I see nothing no more
No more . . .

I hear myself insane
No longer know my name
My face reads the same
again . . .

No matter where you go,
my heart's inside you
Now that you are gone,
I breathe inside you

I die inward from the pain
I am reborn again
Yet lifeless I remain
So fuck you . . .

You thieved from me the dream
My ray of hope, my beam
It now lays inside the stream
of Sorrow . . .

I desire to forget
My emotion of love, and yet
there it waits - it sits
Good-bye . . .

No matter where you go,
my heart's inside you
Now that you are gone,
I choke inside you
