Letter fading in her mind
And I don't know what to believe.
I want it to sink me, but just let me find,
The one thing I needed to leave.
Talk's become cheap,
And words hurt too much.
It's crumbling, and I'm too far away,
My heart speaks its mind, tries to scream out,
But sounds come much harder these days.
I've lost too much sleep,
Cried way to long,
Just thinking about...
Those stories they'll here in a song.
Memories remain, and fade out into,
Songs, I can no longer play.
I know what you want, and I just want you,
To know and believe what you say.
Memories remain,
But haunt me here still,
There's just nowhere to run from the pain.
Reason for writing:
I wrote this poem for the same reason that I've written so many others...to try and make sense of my life, let out what I'm feeling inside. It's a way to release what I'm feeling, but can never say. This particular poem was written for someone who I care about very deeply. Unfortunately, it was never givent to that person...now it's just a reminder of how I still feel about her.
