Shining Right Through A Ruthless Fight
A night just passed without you here
You’re bedside left untouched
I relish the silence but recoil when I hear it so
I miss you, but I really don’t, so please just don’t come home
I love to be here alone, pretending that this is really a home
When you roll yourself through the door, 'I am loved' becomes no more
As the silence evaporates, so do thoughts of a plan to escape
And to think that I could be true to something or someone who could never be true
To love and not be loved forevermore by you,
I now know I should have listened to “not have theses colours is to a poison lack. If you see these missing, be ready to pack.”
And now he calls me so by another name for a wary foe
He presents himself when I do not reply
And strikes me, and without a sigh, I think again of by and by
My lines of love were written in silences,
thoughts that were incomplete
As said to him while I was beat, with nothing else to do
“Stay happy, be brave; be yourself, don’t be saved.”
Let me be free from this pain,
Let me regain what I lost
Let me know what true love is,
Don't let me stay lost
Another day has passed,
Without someone here for me,
I start to lose my sense of right and wrong
I lose my thoughts of going home
I lose my willing to an avid sea
And let these times take hold of me
I slowly close my eyes,
Envisioning a child ever so kind,
And second and second by, I slip from being alive.
When he comes home tonight,
He shall not ever again have to fight
A person who let him know,
She was ready to let him go.
