PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

This chair is filled but it seems so cold

Is it wrong to do what I've been told

You see the light but you don't feel the heat

There's just too much gone to make ends meet

There's just too much gone to make ends meet



Do I call your name just to hear you speak

Or is it something else deep inside of me

All the colors fade when there's nothing left

It's a simple life but still I have regrets

It's a simple life but still I've paid my debts



You ask so much

But then give so little

You ask so much

How can you ask so much

And then give so little



You have to have something more inside

There's so much more to life than all this stupid pride

But you see the end and nothing else in sight

And while the fire burns there's just no light

And while the fire burns you close your eyes



You ask so much

But then give so little

You ask so much

How can you ask so much

And then give so little



You ask to touch

But then you turn away

You ask so much

How can you ask to touch

And then turn away, you turn away...



And then you turn away

And then you turn away

And then you turn away

And I'm gone
