Anchor to the heart

Is there anybody out there listening to me

Can you hear me dying every time I breathe 

Holy mother help me stutter her name no more

It hurts my heart to speak about her

When there is no hope

In the gallows of my mind she hangs me every time

Yet I still survive even though it hurts to be alive

Love covered in lies

In my dreams she sleeps with another 

Forgotten yesterdays I can't quite uncover

First love for a temporary man 

Hold me closely trap me slowly cage me inside 

The memories of a former happy life

How do I forget

When does moving on kick in

If you ask me I bet i'm suffering for my sins

Is there anybody out there listening to me

Can you hear me dying every time I breathe

I feel the pain here. Your choice of words can take me to the emotion and it make me feel sad and longing too. Is this a personal feeling thou? if it is i hope you'll find a girl who will anchor your heart with happiness. sooner i hope

Thanks Sheen, yeah unfortunately it's from a personal experience, one that pierces and resonates within me still. But time heals all wounds and i'm a better man for experiencing it. Thank you for your kind words and thoughts.
