I wish things were simple,
Like they use to be
But no matter how I try,
I can't see clearly
There's so much pain in me,
That I hide
And knowingly with out a doubt,
I have tried, oh I have tried
To rid my mind,
Of the pain embedded in my soul
Too deep to forget,
Undoubtedly I have paid my toll
And once again you try to understand,
But you fall flat like the rest
Not even coming close,
Within a mile at best
And I stand here waiting,
For your lies and betrayal
And still you question,
Why is it that you fail.
Once again, I'm stunned at the subtle complexities of the emotions you've expressed. I've tried to express similar emotions in writing but its always difficult for me and things get bottled up. But you know a pain similar to some of us. Again, excellent work.
