Fading Soul


Has my soul faded into deep darkness

Overpowered by a blazing hot pain.

A unknowing feeling of a true mess

The memories of you keeping me sane.

Not even the idea of feeling

But simply the feeling of true temptation.

Ignoring that deep inside Im bleeding

Not worth the unpleasant complication.

Although in fact it is not you who I miss

Not the way you would tell me all your lies.

Its the idea of that last first kiss

Which brings to mind all the lonely goodbyes.

I shall keep this pain within my cold soul

For it has taught me to live with this toll.
