IN THE WAKE
Heartbreak
What's left in the wake?
Demolished home i'm left alone
Raped and robbed on the outside I roam
In the wake
Drenched, battered , fatigued
As I internally bleed
On my knees I stare at the storm
as it abruptly leaves
In the wake
Grab my chest as I feel the ache
A chasm occupies this place
A gaping void has taken my heart's space
In the wake
Before you even have a chance to think
These violent winds don't give a chance to blink
It feels the end of the world, or maybe the brink
In the wake
Look up to the sky and ask god why?
You seemed like you gave your all and tryed
God dammit i'm not ready to say goodbye
In the wake
I stand around look at the debris
A barren wasteland as far as I can see
Anger soon comes when sorrow flees
In the wake
Will things ever be the same?
This downpour of pain
You can't hide in your swept away shelter
So you feel that rain
In the wake
I'm weary i'm so tired
Stripped away is my desire
To rebuild this fragile abode
I guess from the bottom, I only can go higher
In the wake
I live in reflection
Did I come short of perfection?
It's come time to dual my Life long enemy
Rejection
In the wake
I sit here and wallow
where my residence stood
That won't do me no good
As I look around beyond my own
theres thousands of wrecked neighborhoods
So I decided to not only rebuild mine. help rebuild theirs
We're all naked and bare
Our storys we'll share
In the wake
