You come in waves
And suffocate me sweetly.
When I think I'm okay,
You sneak in discreetly.
Each time we meet
You wear a new face.
Always different,
You know how to greet me.
You fill me up
Just to pour me out
Into a sea full of agony
Disguised as bittersweet beauty.
My hands grow cold,
Eyes grow weary.
So sad I hurt the ones
Who love me dearly.
Nights become days,
And the days grow long,
A never-ending
Melancholy song.
Feeling Trapped By My Fears
Loneliness
