I smell flames upon the
breeze,
The sky alight with wicked
glee,
Ashes swirl among the winds
A home now dead
Broken down cars line the
streets,
Life turns in strange ways
All you ever had gone
You walk slowly away
Carrying a dead soul
People reach for you
Wanting reassurance
You smack them harshly
You have become sick
Darkness lies ahead sweetly
His lovely arms enfold thee
Swept away into his comfort
Waves crash hitting cliffs
Seagulls sing joyous melodies
Salty air runs quickly
Boats sail away
Lighthouses take breath
The horns sound off
As the sky turns pink
You are here once again
Sand covering each foot
Laughter accompanies you
My memories dance in
I now stand alone
You are not there
Wind whips my hair
Tears never stop coming
Are they for you
Are they for me
They flood my chest
The pain unbearable
Why can't it be washed away
Why does it still live
Will you take my hand
Will you forgive me
I broke every promise
I still think of you
I'm sorry
You asked me to move on
I just can't
I never will
Grief holds me prisoner
Agony screams on forever
You will never be washed away
All I can do is cry
*Forgive me for staying in the past.....
