    Forever Stained

    Post  hoppy on Fri Nov 16, 2007 5:49 am

    The icy sky is frozen still
    loneliness knocks upon my sill
    My pulse has slowed to match the air
    reaching to feel her, do I so dare?
    I crack the sill to steal a smell
    she enters me quickly, I know her well
    Filling me with a numbing wave
    she's draining me of what I crave
    Fear sets in and I begin to shiver
    just as pure emotions upon waking deliver
    I cannot rest, dreams soak my skin
    silently screaming, crazy within
    The bedroom has become the stillest in frame
    all is now fading, all but a name
    I see memories blanketed by dust in the light
    my bed has become an antique overnight
    Her face is reflected all over the room
    each motion I make unsettles this tomb
    The dust it mushrooms into a mist
    which surrounds me and holds me for one final kiss
    The mist is now breathing a life of its own
    showing me how much I'm really alone
    Releasing me slowly, instilling more pain
    for over and over I'm soaked with her name
    My chest feels quite heavy by each end of the day
    I'm borrowing breaths I cannot repay
    Hoping and praying for soon there'll be rain
    to cleanse me from torture of hearing her name
    Once she is gone, only then may I realize
    torture is one face of love in disguise
