Safe and Sound

Happ ending.
Forgot why.
Subtle flickers of light at the end of my tunnel eyes.
This is it.
The leaves like cards are dealt to the willing ground.
Hungers long after the winds swept through the branches.
This can't be my fate?

Can it?
 
My heart burns with passion.
And yet I lie here passive.
The way out seems so far away.
The way out is arms length.
My body slips the inspection.
And yet I never learned my lesson.
Can you remember the good days?
Lately I've been broken like branches after a storm.
No light winds here.
No light moments dear.
I could spell disaster; but would that return the laughter?
This house was never a home. My heart was not in it.
Look at me!
Please...
All you see is the obvious.
It took a while.
but now Im shaken.
The tree is still there like a true friend.
Wish family was too.

They are lost on me.
The guilt drained with the torrent of prolonged emotions.

Sigh.

Its home sweet home but im homeless.
Its safe and sound but im deafened.
Im tired of hearing the sound of pressure without result.
Tired...
And yet the storm has passed.
Its the aftermath but Im not safe at home.
So I leave this world behind and my body withers away.
This tree needs ground for roots to work.
The ground gave away.
I gave myself away.
Oh,
I gave myself away...
