Would that I could escape all this pain
I run and run but my body’s still the same
If I could float I could fly leave my body for a time
To know the weightlessness of not being overwhelmed by this constant pain
To flit in the currents of the wind and not feel the whole world around me spin
To run and not tire to walk and not ache
To fit in with the crowds passing by
To relate to them when they complain about what it is like to fly
To fit in without even having to try
Instead of trying so hard to lock it all up inside
Just smile and say your doing fine
And I’m sorry I can’t make it I haven’t got the time
Just to sit inside and cry till all my tears are dry
Wondering what it would be like if I could only fly

Healing words

Whispers in my mind, voices in my head
Scattered thoughts turned to scratches of lead
What does it mean? What has it said?
It's nothing but words cold and dead
Scatters of verse tangles of meaning
Only time will tell what these thoughts are gleaning
Will the words I write do their part
To slowly heal my shattered heart

They Say it Goes Away

They say if I just got this far it all would go away
The pain the loss that haunts me would just be gone someday
The light and bright potential would chase the clouds away
But the darkness still lurks closely, crouched in waiting it lays
If I keep running can I leave it all in the past
Finally reach something so great the pain is gone at last

Masquerade

You’ve played your part, now I shall play mine
On and on in this game we mime
Trapped in these parallel lines
Will one of us break script
And voice now our truest line
Or do we play on
living out these lies
Never letting this false face slide
