I've never felt so happy
or so alone
the ones beside me drifted by me
and sung me a sweet song I grew tired of singing
so hum me a melody so sweet I can see
the good in a heart again
so I can wake up again
to light in the sky again
to light in my eyes again
erase these dark scars that line my skin like a road map
leading you to the secrets that lay silent in my skull
wanting to break free
needing to be set free
release my clenched fists for me and close my eyes shut
fingers intwined,
touch your lips to mine
breathe life into me.
