In a deep, dark hole
I hear her whispering my name
She says do not fear, my dear
I am forever happy.
Like a wildfire
She was there...
Then was washed away.
Gone.

My heart was too filled
To carry that love along
Even when the knife pinched our minds
Tickled our nerves
And told us
This will work.

My mind played tricks on me
Said this love would be a lasting success!
But this mind is deceiving
Like the weather when it says it will stay cool
But in return, it sends out a strong gust of wind
And hot, scorching flames that engulf your words
And slur your speech that once had the answers
And this flame screams...
I AM YOUR PROBLEM

This wind made you rethink all possible hopes
Told you that the dreams are just enemies
Within the battlefield you call your brain
That try to enter and attack the lies
Hiding from you.

These lies are the same ones that said
She is going to be yours for eternity
The ones that said
Isn’t lust the same thing as love?

Even if I can’t repair our mistakes
And even if you won’t give me your word
The ocean will stay blue and cold
As my heart will.

Because closure is all I think of anymore
It’s all I daydream of
So if our lives grow old and distant
I will once be all that you ever dreamt of
But in the end, I was lost.
Gone.
