POETICALLY NAKED

Forever Stained

Forever stained

Tear my heart from my chest,
Let me die just like the rest.
Take my life it is not mine
With your words you crossed a line.
Back me up and have your way
I can't do anything but stay
Fair your life I will always know
You are nothing but my foe.
I hate the way you make me feel,
It gets you off I know your deal.
And in the wake of your path
I see your smerk I hear your laugh
Time is all that keeps me here
And my time is almost near.
I can see the writing on the wall
I hear the reaper with his call
Tears fall from my face
God I hate you in my space.
And as I hear you walk away
I know you'll return to me some day
For now I wait bleeding inside
Because I know I can't hide
And as I lay to rest this night
I close my eyes to your sight
Dreaming of my life thus far
It goes out like a shooting star
Forever I will feel this pain
my soul is forever stained.
