Risen From The DeadA Poem by mjsalyersWhen something you want so badly comes to an end and we grieve for what seems eternity, This is the precious solitary moment of realizing you no longer want or need it.Walk in my wake as in your dreams We both know that we're on opposing sides And life is no better as the cold night burns away But the ghost of an old love goes away .... I seem to be stalking some shadows from my past With a light to drive them from my memory Because , now they enrage me and there's nowhere to escape As the past steals my last cold breath away ..... I'm haunted by the phantoms as they invade my dreams And they seem to be relentless anymore Now dreams just possess me till they're all I can take And the stale winds of the dead come close the door .... Now as I waken , my life fades like the dream As I find the strength to pull myself from bed And I laugh for a moment as the tears leave my eyes As I realize , I have risen from the dead ..... © 2015 mjsalyers |
