Flashes in time

Fading to night

Memories perpetually crowding my mind

Watching time passing by

Forever lost in your eyes

I close the door.

But the window is still open

The intruder penetrates

And leaves behind nothing, but a scarred and trembling girl

I???m tangled in my web of hair

Now I remember why I put it up before I get dressed

Over under

Under over

Disadvantaged by myself

You are your own worst enemy

The veil has lifted.

Shadowed eyes hide the truth

The secrets hidden deep within

Nightmares of all the lives I couldn???t save

She will be just one more

Please let me be wrong this time

I cry inside so no one can see

I am not broken.

Only wounded by the memories

Shadowed from my past

Drowning in the blood of my future

I must not break.
