The fog sits soft

hovering over the trees

as on the porch i cry

and fall to my knees.

Wishing to forget

what was in the past

since the feelings that were there

just never seemed to last.

the warm nights breeze

feels cool to my cheek

where rested is a tear

that my hands seem to seek.

to brush it away

and try to forget

but the memories stay with me

in my mind & soul they sit.

oh make them go away

far from my mind

im trying to go forward

but seeming to only look behind.

My heart seems black,

black as the night

I dont even have the strength

to even put up a fight.

I let the numbness consume

and take over my heart

but I put myself here,

I knew it from the start.

Love is only pain

between a woman and a man

fore you cannot make them want you

this you cannot demand.

Love yourself and be free

but dont lose yourself on the way

think about tomorrow

fore it may be a better day.
