My Desire

My Desire

With each step I take
I fade more
Into the nothing that I am.
I slowly disappear
And I don’t cry for help.
This is what I wanted
From the very start
My desire from long ago
To not be noticed
Or even seen
And the only thing ever heard
Would be the echo of my screams.

Hidden Escape

Hidden Escape

Your sweet voice in my ear
The soft touch of your hand
I close my eyes
And the storm seems to fade
Nothing matters anymore
Because you’re by my side
You promise no harm
And a reason to smile
No need for tears
And fears can disappear
You’re the escape that I needed
The one that’s been hidden away
I’ve searched for so long
And I’ve finally found you.

Tears being shed
Over broken promises
That you could never keep.
Regret taking over
The mind that was once free
To wander in happiness.
Silent moments
Turning into hours
Of not a word being said.
Hidden fears of life
Seem to creep from the dark
Reminding me I’m not alone.
Memories begin to haunt
And what smiles that were left
Fade into the shadows.
Nothing here now
Only a river of bloody tears
To remind us of our past.
