Demons

This is more stuff about heartbreak...

It started in the summer time
And felt like it ended quickly
I thought I'd be better that way
But since you left
The demons have taken over inside

And how am I to thrive in the rain
Not enough or too much could kill you in a day
Plus the tears that are running down my face
And there's no stopping

Lately
All I want to do is cry
Listening to my music on the car ride
But all there's left is to feel ashamed
I will never feel better

My friends don't really know
Except for one

All the people I've left alone
All of them gone

Five lovers
Twenty friends
We all stuck together
Until the end...

I met a fighter
Who wanted his world safe

I met a boy once
Whose family died in a fire

I met a girl once
Whose best friend went down in a plane

All I wanted was for them to be safe
But now they're probably worried about me...

Every day I look out the window
And see a stormy sky
I wonder if it's a sign
Of how you left me here to die

And all I want to do is say goodbye
And all I want to do is sing my own lullaby
And I bet you that with the tears that have come
I might accidentally flood the world

This a quite a solemn poem of regret and depression, you could argue a solitary tear is as deep as any sea, because within said tear, there are uncountable emotions, a chemical reaction of pent up soul. I enjoyed this. I tend to lean toward the dark side of life, and I'm a firm believer in without darkness we couldn't recognize (or appreciate) the light.
