Nostalgia always haunts me
On nights that I am alone
Forcing me to resurrect
Old ghosts that have been long gone
Nostalgia go **** yourself
The ******* that always wins
I try to drown your sorrows
Hope we never meet again

Internalize, internalize
Don't let those tears fall out your eyes
Ignore the ache of your demise
Your heart is punished for it's size

I hate who I pretend to be
I always hide the real me
Caught off guard when you stole the key
Set all my inner demons free
Melinda Barrett Aug 2016
You're ice
I'm fire
You're casual
I'm all or nothing
You're modern
I'm old fashioned
You're an attention seeker
I don't need validation
You're mainstream
I hide underground
You're lighthearted and airy
I'm the epitome of darkness

Conspiring with the universe
The moon, the stars, the sun converse.

Mental funerals, empty epitaphs
How sad it is when nothing ever lasts
Melinda Barrett Aug 2016
Shortfall or an avalanche
Never even stood a chance
Kismet or just happenstance
Left me screaming **** romance
