Behind Sad Eyes

 

Behind sad eyes lies memories of desolate yesteryears
and a blackened soul soaked with gloom standing in shadows
she stands abandoned and cries tears stained with blood
shackled and chained, my heart constrained ; bound to you
my mind lost in the obscure window panes of the past
you linger in my thoughts like falling rains to an uneasy earth
there is no now, I see no tomorrows in this inevitable loneliness
the thunder rolls as the storm rages on cloaked in shrouds of darkness
memories of you like a disease course through my veins
that has no cure , blood no longer pure it's hard to breath
pains in the chest , dying inside wanting nothing more
than to escape out of my skin and transcend into my own space and time
stop running in place , but feeling like it's a crime wanting to move forward
finding my own nirvana to replace the bad with a small amount of good
being able to stand on two feet again as I greet a new day dawning
with eyes wide open reaching out to a bright horizon with diminishing sadness
