Sometimes my heart says
I can't take this anymore
oft contrast of new beginnings
Still, aching heart sore

But still I stand
to see the light of day
arms wide open as
You wash the pain away

It's getting late now
but I cant sleep
Will you come to me
as my heart bleeds

Come, tell me everything
Will be okay
Come strengthen me once more
Drench me with love to the core

Forget the past
and move on they say
It didn't, doesn't matter
anyway

I beg to differ you see
All the long lost laments
The miseries

Embedding in my brain
what if's what could have been's
leave me in pain
Oft drive me insane

Memories of yesteryear's
what they meant to me
precious moments I see so vividly
The one's I recall that make me cry
The one's that creep in my soul
The one's that won't die

Take me away from this place
Where darkness reigns
Out of the muck and mire
Where oft so many things seem dire

On a new path that has begun
A beautiful song yet unsung
Hold my hand as I journey on
Be my guide be my hearts song

To new beginnings to life begun
To songs yet unsung
True story man!!
life has begun!!
