May 2010
The notes of the songs we heard are falling like rain.
They shower me in nostalgia and pain.
The poison filled memories won't bleed out.
The words you said keep screaming so loud.
And you...
What you said was absolutely true.

There's a monster in my mirror that pushed you away.
I'm sorry I couldn't keep it at bay.
Lets ask each other questions and tell no lies.
Maybe then you'll see all the love in my eyes?
Haunt my dreams and slice me apart.
It's impossible to stitch back my heart.

This sudden change has made me sick and sore.
God how I wish I didn't need you anymore.
Let me go and I'll free fall through traffic.
I want to scream in your face but you're holographic.
Come back and pick up this mess!
This mess you've made in the whole of my chest!

And I don't think you realize, just what's been done.
I'm ******* sorry you weren't having any fun.
Love me in my dreams, because you hate me out here.
Watch me never wake up, it's not like you care.
Put your hand to my chest, can you feel my heart race?
It's racing like yours did, it's matching the pace.

It's pounding so hard, it'll pop out of my skin.
Exposing the desolate world within.
Come creep in my head, let's crawl into bed.
Why don't you beat me till i'm black, blue, and red?
I'll hide in my pillow as these tears turn to glass.
Just show some affection, that's all I ever asked.
This is titled Insomniac's Soliloquy because I wrote this over a number of nights around 1 or 2am, sometimes later. I did write this so please don't steal it. If you wish to post this elsewhere, PLEASE ask me first.
And for the record I have never been beat by anyone at any time.
