The Everlasting Pain

Struck by lightning

Emotions turning cold

Boiled and frozen on the inside

Like a sword has divided my body

Chasing your ghosts

While I follow your shadow

Trailing my own silhouette

As I march deeply into darkened space

The world around me starts to tick slowly

Like a busted clock, ticking back and forth

The everlasting pain

I am dependant on you

As if you feed me like my breakfast

Wake me up for the morning

But I can’t rely on you to put me to sleep

Like dust, on an un-cleaned table

You allow me to swallow my own misery

As if you don’t care

As if I am a puppet

The everlasting pain

As I sit here suffering

You think I don’t feel pain?

Like a stuffed toy

With my eyes sewn on as if I can’t see?

Sitting there for your decoration

Until one day you decide it doesn’t look good

Place me in your closet

Keep me on standby

I’ll wait for the day you decide to use me again

The everlasting pain

As I try to run away

From this solo war

Which I face my own enemy

Hit by my own bullet

Then turning around to see your staring face

The most beautiful face I have seen

Haunts me like a sly spirit

If only you loved me

If only we felt the same

If only I never had this everlasting pain.
