How can I bring back,
the time I lost because of you?
the present I needed to live,
but I gave it all to you.
How can I deny,
the voices I needed to hear?
How could you be so rude,
leaving me in a pain I couldn’t bear?
It feels like yesterday,
but I’ve grown old,
I’m still counting the empty spaces,
and a void I behold.
How can I deny,
I was stubborn and foolish?
but the path I was walking then,
was my only wish.
Every single day
feels like a year,
I’m still picking up the pieces,
and live in fear.
I’m tired of the life you created,
and I am broken,
I need a cure
to give me back what was stolen.
How am I going to get back up,
when there is a beast chained underneath my skin?
and the scars,
they drill deep down and revive my sins.
Can someone save me
from the hell, I am in?
The pain and misery
have made me a slave of my own guilt.
How can I make my heartbeat
walk the path of positivity?
because with these empty spaces,
my life is left incomplete.
