I sit here dried tears on my face
Unable to please the crowd
This all that i can take
Ive been down and out
More times than i can count
Ready to hit the floor
Defeated with out a doubt
Hopeless drained to the core
My eyes dim in fear
My thoughts cloud with hate
My breathing slowed by your words
Give or take
I’ll always have a void
Which once craved your heart
So young so innocent
I never wished to see it part
i miss you for now and forever
You were my first loved
So our minds will always be together
even when your lips cant brush my cheek
or kiss my neck
I’ll forever be in love
Defeated once… conquer the next.
