maybe if I close both eyes and pray it'll go away, because if I refuse to see it how can it stay?

A nation so starved for love
so willing to strangle it out of any space they can grasp
but too selfish to give any of their own
Afraid there will be none left

A people so oblivious to those around too caught up in our own lives to realize
some of us don't come from loving homes of warmth
but prisons with blood wardens with cold eyes


No some of us would rather die and some of us have searching for that one moment to change it all
That one second that proves were not transparent but just alive as everyone
For a hand to reach or heart that holds
Just a moment in the story of our life

I guess a life of ease isn't meant for a sinner like me.

I crave you.
      Every single p
                              i
                           e
                         c
                          e    
                             Calling me towards you
                                   Wispering in my every thought
   "Stay with me!"
Oh how I wish I could              

Alas my sweet bed for I must face the day, but believe me when I say I'll be back when night falls
                                  *My love

It's not that no one listens
Or even notice
It's that she's afraid
That if she try's to reach out
Or begin to speak up
She'll be turned away

And in my mind your words burn deep, imprinting my every step away, from the fire that you started, with the shreds of my heart...
                 "...Thank you for teaching me early on,
                                 that others cannot be trusted."
