How can it be so dark that it doesn't matter if you're running blind How can there be no light When a heart's already set Knows what it must find Nurse or mother Partner in crime You know too much of me Words alone can tell that So kind that I am child again Feeling tears for memories Sadness for the butterflies That just for the innocent Were willing to be caught A salute to all the happiness That for me was naught Pulling oh so gentle I try to please them all A face unseen A voice unheard Spreading wings that aren't my own I put a dead life in your hands Worth so little, worth so much Shows that I can't fly Denying all I held before I can't face what I have done Shut out all perception In the dark land I am safe Yet you force some words into the flow of time Words right from a movie script That sometimes pose a threat Sometimes prove advice And sometimes do resound Feeding tears with memories And teaching me To cry again
Reason for writing:
you know why... though I don't know if I'll be able to keep up the pace...
