Time to put on my facade
As a new day begins
Sun rises
Night ceases to exist
At least for this moment
My thoughts dry up
And despite myself
I smile a madwoman's smile.
Choices so simple
So hard.
It was love at first light
That set me to pieces.
How useless was I?
How useless am i now?
A ghost trapped in a shell
Persistance of memory
Never fails
So I walk away...
Not wanting to return
but Having to.
I live for that look
In you eyes.
Pull me close to you and
Wrap your arms around me...
Calm this perfect storm
And with lips on my face
Eyes half lidded
Say 'lets go back to sleep'.
