BLOOD LINES

My heart bleeds daily

And I'm starting to think that maybe it will never cease 

My soul seeks reprieve 

I've been hurt once too many

And the pain multiplies with each day that passes by

Even though I try so hard to let go

My soul seeks closure

This is not the way life is suppose to be

Worst of all my seeds grow in a barren wasteland 

Saying change soon come 

And seeing none

The main feature is a rerun  

I wish our love hadn't  grown sour 

But I suppose the hour of change was upon us

Our empire crumbled to dust

and I walked away filled with wrath

A hole likened to a precipice in the middle of my heart

I try hard to let go and then

Here comes another blow 

and we are right back here again

When all I want is to be free

From the bonds that once held sway

Our fates trapped together

Suffocating each other

Reason snuffed out by misdeeds 

Only room left to fight

Unless you heed my plea

To set me free tonight...
