I feel everybody's eyes trained on my back

Your hand clasping mine

Your lips on my cheek

But all is at stake

Like it is not mine to keep
Amanda Kay Burke Aug 2022
I do not know where to go from here
Vision blurred by every heavy tear
Helplessly witnessing hope disappear
I am forced to face my greatest fear
Which is losing the people i love the most
Amanda Kay Burke Aug 2022
Take by surprise by letting me find
You hold me with a hand so kind
Lead to the answer with a song
Press against like a current strong

So I love you forever from now
Every place we go that is my vow
Your body is my only desire
Touches mine
Sets skin on fire

Fill with hope for better days
Overflow into me your words always
Call me home
Call me your wife
Welcome to the rest of our life

I cannot believe you're really gone
Disappeared in blink of an eye
Many things I would change
If I had another try
You meant the world and more to me
NoI'm stuck asking the universe why
You would take someone I love so much
Before even saying goodbye
My mom passed away and now i feel hopeless. I can barely muster the strength to go on.

We live a world of make-believe
Everyone speaks in lies
Multiple faces worn
Conversations disguise

Snide statements made with polite words
Insinuated interactions
Everybody has an ulterior motive
Stances formulated for satisfaction

They shout and curse your name privately
Never face-to-face
Doesn't matter who is in the wrong
Dishonesty is a disgrace

I make thoughts known aloud
To whom they're relevant
If harboring feelings towards someone
Make those emotions evident

How dare you speak ill my character
An object made of my name
My story used for your entertainment
But my life is not your game
