Ashes fall around me

Contributed by rhei76 on Thursday, 22nd March 2007 @ 04:45:48 PM in AEST
Topic: DreamsandWishes



Saw you last night
You came to me in a dream
There was two K’s
One was black
One was white
You all dressed up tight
Staging up hypothetical, right

I envision
The toxicity of my emotion
The belligerent
Under, overrated
Understanding of my urgent
None overwhelming
Need or thought of reason
There’s nothing that tells me
I am true
I wonder why the season
Has to change
And it scares me
Am I, a lie?

I don’t want to say a thing
I want to say nothing
While I push these feelings down
I want to hide them
Cause I couldn’t stand
If I came to hurt you
All this emotion speaks from deep inside of me
I really, really want to be
Want to be the one



***

Rejection doesn’t really concern me
Being alone isn’t something that scares me
Falling seems it would be beautiful
When thoughts of you fill me up
And leave me full
Like all the cracks in me
Are mended

Yet still I break when I want to speak
I’m broken when I want to peak
I’m torn by what I seek
And from the cracks I leak
For the pain that lives inside of me

I’m all sad
And you take away that song
When I see you
When I wake up
Just to hear you leave
You take away my pain
Even though I will not say

You’re beautiful
Every piece of my broken heart
Tells my brain
I want you

But why
Can I keep you without any lie?
I just couldn’t love myself
If I hurt you too

You see, I don’t trust myself
I can’t accept being your pain

I know I lived a long time to fix my offense
I lived enough to be better
But I don’t trust myself enough
To tell you everything I really want to

Everything in my past
I, laid down in my ruins
Waiting for the ashes to leave me

I witness you
And pray you will let me make you my muse
This is the only place I can start

For I can’t trust my heart
It’s left me broken and away from the love
I always harbored
I don’t want you to be just another one


I want my words to have meaning
So I know I will not hurt you


***

So I will stay silent
Till the day I have to balls
To ask you to be my muse
‘Cause you, I just can’t use

The way my heart feels
It just wants to get away from
All the ashes that fall around me
The ruins that I've burned
The place I have failed to leave
I just can't let you become apart of my past
I want this feeling to last

Some one to spread the ash
And mark a cross on my forehead

I read and I hear a song of a heart that hasn't seen the spring season and it's coming...like walking in a garden and only one flower is missing...but there are so many beautiful flowers to get to know...but the thought of that missing flower blinds one to all they are missing. Life is a garden and we just have to pick the right flower...just one time.I feel sad that a weed has overgrown your love garden.
Pick a flower that nourishes you not a weed that saps all of your love force. So if it's fictional that would be my reaction....which would be constructive I hope....
