Praying, your breathing that you won't fall
Running, your screaming to them all
So silent you feel yourself dying inside
All your pain you put away to hide
Watching as all of your walls crash in
Waiting for the parade to begin
You have to run away from your pain
You have to out run the pouring rain
You have to run straight into your fears
And the farthest from your tears

It's was a broken dream of "couldn't"
It was a lie that always burned
All the things that I shouldn't
I still did on my turn
I am now broken
By my mistakes
Unspoken
Couldn't take
It

Broken castle a top a lonely hill
Every board is aging, rotted and frayed
The remains of frail memories will spill
Onto the dirt ground, once flourished I layed
The lights all flicker on and come to life
And the chandelier rises from the floor
The tune I danced with, when I was your wife
Dancing to the beat, open ballroom doors!
Theres a dark pulse of magic in the air
The years fall off my shoulders, I'm alive
I can picture you again standing there
I have been shocked so suddenly revived
And to take my last shaking dying breath
I can open my arms to you, and death

It was under the warmth of the sun
That the first tear fell
It was the beginning of "done"
And the opening of my hell

You had broken my soft trusting heart
Crashed into my wall
You pulled me apart
And made me fall

Let me go please let me go
i just want to know
do you really care?
do you see me standing there?
or is it someone else
please just tell me

I want to forget your eyes
That haunt me now
I want to forget the lies
But I don't know how

After every chance I gave
You wasted each one
After each path I paved
You hit me where it stung

Let me go please let me go
i just want to know
do you really care?
do you see me standing there?
or is it someone else
please just tell me  

And now I'm crying to myself
Because you called again
It's not good for my health
You aren't now, you weren't then

Let me go please let me go
i just want to know
do you really care?
do you see me standing there?
or is it someone else
please just tell me

Buzzing softly
Rattling like slow beaten drums
The air grew thick
And the clouds hovered grey
Black spider like vines
Crawling
Chasing me
Trying to flee from this darkness
The memories keep it near
Keep it here
Running to the trees
But slowly the leaves
Turn black
Dripping like ink
Bleedin from the ground
All around
It's so dark here
The sky blood red
The moon a black hole
In the sky
The vines like barb wire
Rip up my legs
Cut through my flesh
My teeth mesh
Cold the wind grips my throat
The silent scream
So loud
As the soft grey clouds
Cry tears

I need you to hold me,
I am so cold
Inside my body shivers
And my soul quivers
Don't disappear
I need you near
I want to feel your touch
Again, make me blush
Your words so sweet
Chase away the pain
Your laugh so soft
Cut away the strain
I love you so much
It burns inside
I love you to the ends if earth
It hurts to say it
You wipe away my tears
With these soft and gentle hands
You hold me so tenderly
It quakes the lands
Your whispers
They taunt me
As your lips
Tease my lips
I just need to know that
This is real
And not just a dream
Katlyn Orthman Jan 2013
I opened my heart
To a new beginning
So you could have a fresh start
So your world might stop spinning
But as I layed out my walls
You pushed at me
And slowly I watched them fall
And it hurt to see
You couldn't wait for me to come along
You had to have it now
You couldn't wait long
You made me bow
You see I don't like this
I can't lay my head to the floor
I won't watch this
As you parade like a *****
To this man you only just met
To this guy you want to love
I can't approve this yet
Even if you want me too
It's you I vowed to protect
After every mans cold dagger
I will be there to help select
Incase you stagger
Just don't let me down
I don't want to cry
Don't make me frown
Don't make me die
