i'd rather live in darkness
Elizabeth Rose Jul 2014
i don't want to lose the feeling of your love
even though i know it's already vanished
each beat of my heart is sustained with dread
because i will never be caressed in your arms as you tell me I'm yours you'll never call me beautiful as if it's my name
and i won't be able to take this tearing ache of loneliness much longer
i can already feel myself becoming how i used to be
i know i shouldn't start
again
but who will stop me?
surely not you
you have forgotten how much you used to love the way my laugh was always the loudest
and i haven't felt your love since the flowers were beautiful  
maybe the sunset will mean something again someday
but for right now
i'd rather live in darkness

— The End —
