i am for a moment.
faded like dusk
a whisper
like the lingering smell of cigaretts
my touch cold like the wind in the early morning
but my skin is burning
i want to feel
but my mind wont let me
trapped in an endless cycle of self loathing
how can i be happy
i am only for a moment
haunted with the memories of happy faces
and cursed with the demands of my past
i cant keep this up my light is fading
don’t worry no one is really paying attention
walking ghosts whip around me like smoke
only to leave no trace
you are only for a moment
just as i am.

i am for a moment.
faded like dusk
a whisper
like the lingering smell of cigaretts
my touch cold like the wind in the early morning
but my skin is burning
i want to feel
but my mind wont let me
trapped in an endless cycle of self loathing
how can i be happy
i am only for a moment
haunted with the memories of happy faces
and cursed with the demands of my past
i cant keep this up my light is fading
don’t worry no one is really paying attention
walking ghosts whip around me like smoke
only to leave no trace
you are only for a moment
just as i am.
