I keep writing about you
day in and day out
I can’t help it
the words possess me
then keep me up at night
I’m jolted out of bed
just to breathe life
into these blank pages
now tainted with your name
verses about the way
you made me feel
stories about the love
that never existed

But what is it all for?
I look up and only your
o b l i v i o n
stares back at me
I don’t expect you
To move mountains for me
Just carry my heart
When it gets too heavy...
Those in sorrow say,
A broken heart cannot love anymore,
Yet here I am,
With a broken heart,
That still loves you everyday.
i'm lost in my weakness
i'm lost in your smile
i’m lost in the sadness
that weakens my mind

i'm lost in the memories
that fill me with stress
i'm lost in the future
that puts me to waste

i'm lost in all of what
stole my smile
i'm lost in the fact
that i can't be alive

i’m lost in your presence
i’m lost in your eyes
i’m lost in the feeling
that makes me tell lies
When you think I've left this earth,
Look closely and you'll find that I'm still here.
I left a trail, ink, blood, tears, smiles and of lead.
My blood made of ink and pencil lead will not allow me to be dead.
My blood inked many of a tear, some on my behalf as well as what others did fear.
My blood inked many memories that made me smile.
So when in doubt follow my paper trail and you'll find me there. ~SacredInkedBlood 05/08/2018©
