A Moment to Myself

Folder: 
March 2010

Chained me to the bottom of a hole, tears making the water rise,
soon I will drown in my own sorrow, and love will be my demise,
that is the story of my life, ever since our fairy tale ended,
signed my heart over to you, and my love was fake while you pretended.
I used to think I had sight, turns out I have been blind.
used to have thoughts, now I seem to have misplaced my mind,
once had a voice, now I have been suppressed,
thought I had hit the jackpot, but like always I guessed.
Now when I get hurt, and it is you that I think of,
all I need is quiet, to tell myself what is to love,
out of all the good, it is common to equal with bad,
but you have the sinful imbalance, and I have been had.
Time should heal all wounds, but all it has done is give me loneliness,
my head hurts from all the thinking, when will I pass this test?
All I need, is a moment to myself,
our memories are now dust covered books, my mind being the shelf,
the ways I used to think of us, walking down the aisle,
now seem to be the aisles in grocery stores, why wouldn't I smile?
