The wind blows across my face
The temperature starts to drop
Over the thunder i can hear my heart
Pounding ever so hard
It skips a beat when i think of you
A raindrop lands on my cheek
I don't notice its presence for it
Blends in with the tears
The lighting flashes bright &
Shows my face
I don't acknowledge the rising water around my feet
I stare at a picture of your being
Knowing what i had is no longer there
Knowing what is there is no longer you
Wind howls like wolves in the woods
My hair brushes across my face
I tremble in the cold
Water up to my knees
Yet your picture stays in my hands
Forever and always I will remember you
I can't stand to think of you
I can't stand to be away
This is when i start to pray
If i can't be with you then
I would rather be
Without a breath
Without a shout
The tears are drowing me
It hurts to breathe
The picture floats away
And my body lies
Hooded with tears
Drowned by my rain

Old Footprints |
| |
|
|
Following old footprints to places I’ve been before, Greeting old memories on which I thought I’d closed the door. Reliving the many moments that once inhabited my mind, Dodging the shattered pieces of the broken heart left behind. Catching stolen glimpses of secrets best left unknown, Visiting the ruins of the life that is my own.
