Burden

It's not something you can take back,

not something to erase,

and watch the shavings fill the page

the page that is this sad place

the vivid memories don't seem to fade

with each passing day

my head hits the pillow

and in my dreams it will always stay

this is not what i want

this is nothing to be happy about

you see me here quiet

all my head does is shout

shout your name as you walk by in memory

hoping you will turn and forget it all

i think the real problem here is 

you don't truly care if i fall

there to remind you

staying to keep you

in its clutches so tight 

no matter how hard you try

its going to haunt you in the night

nothing left to hold onto

its taking you into its hell

escaping is nothing but an idea

secretly you gave up trying to repel
