I'm Still HereA Poem by James ProbertI feel like for the first time I've made an actual song.
I run through my thoughts
Like a marathon man But no matter how hard I try I can't get the upper hand The negative thoughts are like cancer Infecting every part of my brain Just when I think I will win I fall apart yet again ‘Cause I'm here And I fear That all that I love Will just disappear Yeah I'm scared That I dared To give you it all To show that I cared Now you're gone I was wrong The world ain't enough To keep our love strong I'm still here And you're near In no time at all This will all disappear I wish I could cry To find some release But the tears never come And I live in my screams No one ever hears them I bury them deep So that no one will carry The burden I keep ‘Cause I'm here And I fear That all that I love Will just disappear Yeah I'm scared That I dared To give you it all To show that I cared Now you're gone I was wrong The world ain't enough To keep our love strong I'm still here And you're near In no time at all This will all disappear I put on this smile And tell lots of jokes I pretend that I'm funny To hide all my holes. Everyone's taken shots But not one stays to heal I'm metaphorically bleeding But somehow I deal ‘Cause I'm here And I fear That all that I love Will just disappear Yeah I'm scared That I dared To give you it all To show that I cared Now you're gone I was wrong The world ain't enough To keep our love strong I'm still here And you're near In no time at all This will all disappear I walk on and on No matter what comes my way I want to give up But I promised I'll stay Love isn't perfect But it's kept me around And therefore I keep fighting To stay out of the ground ‘Cause I'm here And I fear That all that I love Will just disappear Yeah I'm scared That I dared To give you it all To show that I cared Now you're gone I was wrong The world ain't enough To keep our love strong I'm still here And you're near In no time at all This will all disappear © 2018 James Probert |
