Chains of Life (Longing For Freedom)

Contributed by blackfire9786 on Saturday, 12th July 2003 @ 08:35:00 PM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



Morning comes, Im still asleep
Not til afternoon do I wake
I lay in bed, not wanting to move
Straining for every breath I take.

I awoke today, once again
Will the torture never end
Can no one see, on my pillow
The tears that I am drowning in?

I dress slowly, look in the mirror
See all the scars Ive come to fear
Closing my eyes, I wish away what no ones seen
Wish that tomorrow Ill wake from this dream.

The day flies past me
In a whirl of colors and lies
Before I know it, the stars are out
Alone at last, my empty heart cries

How can every day be so much the same
With no feelings or emotions, no easing the pain
I cant put this on someone else, only Im to blame
My heart is broken, my mind lost, and my spirit stained

So I crawl into bed, the hour before dawn
Struggle with nightmares instead of sweet dreams.
Tears falling to my pillow once again
Soul crying for the day I am free
