It took me a while,
To come back to life.
Healed is my soul,
Redundant the knife.
Tomorrow took,
A bit long to come.
Lost all battles,
Not a single won.
Wounds superficial,
Are long but gone.
The pain still returns,
Like the punctual dawn.
My eyes water,
As returning memories tumble in.
Reminding me of battles,
I couldn't win.
This face of mine,
Is a mask of lies.
It fakes a smile,
While my soul dies.
There's no point,
of coming clear.
Because she can't understand,
What she can hear.
So lost I am,
In the sands of time.
Soul lost in pain,
Mind lost in rhyme.
A very compelling piece with feeling.
