Embers
Location
Every second, minute, and hour of time wasted
Over countless thoughts, my mind has chased it
Mind steady
Heart ready
The weight of this love is too heavy
Cracked and weathered are the soles of my feet
Bones breaking with the woes of defeat
My soul it weeps, it doesn't want to compete
With the others; what we have I thought was complete.
You can't even face me
But you erase me
With the sound of her voice
Not even given a glance
Or second chance
To advance
To higher ground
I just want to be found
In your eyes
Don't give me lies
To make me feel better
That upsets her
But do you know that it kills me too?
Are you ready to lose all we've been thorugh?
Blood sweat and tears
Full of regret and reveires
Of what use to be
Now I see
I need to acknowledge the lead
That has been given to me
Time goes by and I fall apart by the seams
Our memories and dreams
Disappear and lean
Over the edge of despair
Thoughts and body impaired
Wanting it all to end
When will I just win
For a change
