I
am
breathless

crying out from the depths of myself
fatally expressed
by the blood stains on my dress
thought ...again...that I knew where I was going
and all the while i was merely drowning

and so....life goes on
or
does it

.
.
.

**sighs**
(what is life but the weight of water)

breathing is painfull
and my eyes are like wounds lain open for years
 ( unable to heal )
trying to see has become just another daily struggle
burning from an ocean of salty tears

abandoned by fate, empty and alone is all I feel
** A.G.A.I.N. **

.

love made from lies

poisoned promises

dreams shattered by the sound of his "goodbye's"


what was it I believed in you anyway
why is it I think witout you I can't be ok


just when I stop to think.... my thoughts escape me
yet
I cannot escape my thoughts and how they weigh on me


so I wander in circles
a dizzy maze of memories you and I made
and seconds pass over me as I lose track of the days
talking to myself in riddles and mumblings
repeating moments
until my inability to find reasoning of it all becomes overwhelming

how long will I go thu this feeling
that I am losing my mind
how many more times will I collapse
and just when will I ever find my way to the other side..

will
I
ever
surface

the weight of you is pulling me so far under

just wanting to come up for air

Ah but what do we know? Do any of us know what lie beyond the grey waters of life, humanity, and broken trusts? Beautiful. --Kaosu

Have you ever surfaced and then taken the time to see the sun and the vast blue sky... then all of a sudden you realize there is more than just murky water... I do.

weighed down by countless memories, wishing to the stars that the burdens will be lifted and you'll be allowed to breathe, but knowing that just around every corner lies another wrenching thought, another painful reminder...~*Beth*~
