Moonless Sky

moonless sky
velvet snow
frozen rain
nowhere to go
confused mind
failing body
bruises on my soul
bruises on my heart
bruises cover most of me
do i care?
not really..
should i care?
i suppose..
playing games
that's what you do
can you tell me..
what do i really mean to you?
conflicted feelings
contradictory actions
words..words..so many
different words..
echoing through my brain
piercing my soul
leaving me drained
you take two steps forward
then three steps back
who's pulling?
who's pushing?
what is it we lack?
strength grows each day
tomorrow we start anew
trying not to fall apart
trying not to let go
decisions are hard to make
not sure which way to go
leaving seems the obvious way
not necessarily the way i want to go
give me a reason to stay
please don't tell me it's my choice
listen to your heart
not to your inner demons
remember the love we shared
you can't deny there's still love there
we can re-discover each other
rekindle the love and forgive the pain
touch me so softly baby
tell me you feel the same
put your hand in mine
we'll start all over again
this time will be better
we'll be together til the end
