Autumn Pain
Chill lingers in the Autumn air
Sorrow frosts the bare ground
What craziness did you expect?
Me to turn back around?
Time has passed on, or so it seems
There is always somebody new
The pleading in your voice destroys
I can't make it up to you.
Scribbled words won't make this right
As always, snow will bite and fall
Stormy weather still prevails
My back is pushed against the wall.
Every night I lie awake
An ocean crashing inside
Deep with scars I've hidden
And the endless tears I've cried.
You don't see how I'VE been hurt
I'm an outraged, broken mess
And our problems all cannot be fixed
By the smoothness of your caress.
You're better off without me here
Listen to my words, you know you should
In the end I'll cause more pain
Than any weapon ever could.
Very old one I wrote after my ex tried to get back with me when I was like 16. I like the metaphor used. Do you have any feedback on the topic?
