Fragile Memories

Scars stay with us until the end

their weight sinks us into the sand

whay can't we leave this behind and be happy

tears ran dry

our fate remained the same

is it my fear and arrogance to blame

why can't I put the past behind 

and say sorry

fallen from this tower we climb

decived by a fallacy 

crippled by the sands of time

I long to hear a melody

to sway me from the past

break this veil over me

let me see the beauty 

make it last

fragile memories 

come and go so fast

plagueing our cognition

feint echoes from the past

you stayed by me

day by day

loved me when I 

treat you this way

how could you love someone like me

am I worthy 

red roses withered away

a precious love

victim to decay

will these scares fade

will they haunt me

fallen from this tower we climb

decived by a fallacy 

crippled by the sands of time

I long to hear a melody

to sway me from the past

break this veil over me

let me see the beauty 

make it last

fragile memories 

come and go so fast

plagueing our cognition

feint echoes from the past

alone again broken 

fearful of the pain

hollow in side

I wish to feel again

will I ever escape my past

learn to love again

a love that will last
