all the marks they fade away
but still this hurt, this pain remains
the memories won't fade so fast
the memories they tend to last
for an eternity, or till more grief comes
and so I climb these blood slick rungs
the rungs of life, of growing up
the coppery taste of the blood filled cup
the cup is filled with your own blood
the cup falls and starts a flood
of misery and the deepest grief
you look on in disbelief
as you life spins out of control
you hate them all as they console
your broken heart and sullied mind
you see the way, they seem so blind
your mind is sullied by all their lies
the logic they use it totally deifies all common sense, they cast you out
for what? for being devout?
you try so hard to be the one
that they see and do not shun
but all your efforts made in vain
your agony, your hurt, your pain
it lives on after they have left
you find yourself, you feel bereft of loyalty and self esteem
you see your self and start to scream
you think you have nothing left to give
you try to see why you should live
you live for others, to save them pain
and yet you hurt, you burn again
you burn for one, to love and trust
but they took your all and then they thrust
it deep inside the flesh of your heart
they tore you up, your love is tart
the bitter sweet, the end of all
the only thing for which you fall
the only thing that has the gall
to consume your heart and make you crawl
to be the one to be their all
to be the one for whom they fall
