The Haunted Heart

Impaled,  
thoughts of you  
never cease  
 
the air  
is drowning me  
its strangling  
 
etch a sketch love  
drawn beautifully together  
just to have it all shook up  
 
worry beads  
fall to the ground  
one by one  
 
my soul screams  
in agony,  
you are gone  
 
my mind wraps  
itself around that fact  
twisting it into insanity  
 
wanting  
what can never be  
needing that fantasy  
 
the murdered heart  
still thinks its alive  
beating me up on the inside  
 
I have tried it all  
nothing will extinguish  
the flame of you're memory  
 
branded,  
your ghost is all that remains  
and I, forever shrouded in reveries pain
