PrideA Poem by Stacy PurvisA refection in a window, a flash of light Memories of yesterday, no end in sight.
You left me without a reason, a lie Just a twisted story of you and I.
I was running from your ghost only to find.. It was a ghost I needed all the time.
If only we could turn back time Damn your anger and damn your pride
Go back to yesterday, touch my soul Only with you do I become whole.
An echo of voices down the hall These shadows are killing us all.
When you’re alone do you ask ‘why’? Do you ever think about you and I?
Infinitely small in this vast Universe Only in each other can we submerge…
If only we could turn back time Damn your anger and damn your pride
Go back to yesterday, touch my soul Only with you do I become whole.
I’m broken, beaten, and so alone Goddamn it baby, won’t you please come home?
I don’t wanna live this life without you… Don’t wanna lose what we could have
Sometimes you’ve got to give to receive Open up your arms and believe, just believe…
If only we could turn back time Damn your anger and damn your pride
Go back to yesterday, touch my soul Only with you do I become whole. © 2017 Stacy Purvis |
