"Free from me" 7-18-08
It's everywhere around me
suspended in the emotions
of what I used to be
I feel so cold now,like all my tears are freezing.......
I think I'm breaking free
As I lay myself open with words
my pen becomes a razor
the pages turn into veins
and with each and every drop of ink
I loose a part of me
A red tide is coming in
it washes over me
the salty warmth is such a comfort
it feels like coming home
At last I'm breaking free
Why do I still cling so tight
when I long to just let go
am I still just waiting
for someone to fill the empty left within my soul.......
another drop,another piece of me
Blackness closes round
are those stars or firefly's that I see
my pen is running dry,my grasp is getting weaker
at last my past is behind me
I'm crossing the threshold
At last I'm free from me.
suspended in the emotions
of what I used to be
I feel so cold now,like all my tears are freezing.......
I think I'm breaking free
As I lay myself open with words
my pen becomes a razor
the pages turn into veins
and with each and every drop of ink
I loose a part of me
A red tide is coming in
it washes over me
the salty warmth is such a comfort
it feels like coming home
At last I'm breaking free
Why do I still cling so tight
when I long to just let go
am I still just waiting
for someone to fill the empty left within my soul.......
another drop,another piece of me
Blackness closes round
are those stars or firefly's that I see
my pen is running dry,my grasp is getting weaker
at last my past is behind me
I'm crossing the threshold
At last I'm free from me.
