Lullaby

This poem took me about three…very very long weeks to complete….but I’m happy with the outcome….enjoy….It’s called…Lullaby….

This is the lullaby about the tear that falls from my eye.


 

 

 

I see the pain breathing in your eyes

I know one day we’ll have to say goodbye

and you weep from the inside

trying to hide behind the disguise

parading around in the masquerade

now it’s time for you to lay in the bed you made

you hide behind the lies that make you cry

now it’s time for you to wipe the tear from your eye

 

 

I can’t tell you about this lie

that I keep deep down inside the secret I possess

that I cannot confess

and every time your in my thoughts

the secret unfolds and in my skin

it clings to the sin

as I hold tight to the secret I carry within

it overwhelms me and I start to fight

but another tear takes flight


 

You know I’ve tried to let you go but every time a piece of me dies

I become entangled in my own pride.

Got caught up in my own disguise.

I start suffocating by my own lies

as another tear falls from my eye

because I know I’ll never be able to say goodbye

 

 

I’m starting to realize this is a twisted lullaby

the luminating sin that hits my skin

its because of you I can’t win

the inner demon telling me to start over again

telling me this is the end

I’m trying to tie up all my loose ends

 before another tear hit my skin

and this will start all over again

 

 

 

I hit my knees to the floor every night

trying so hard to give up this fight

I pray God would take you up high-

high in the sky away from me

but this isn’t how its going to be

God put you in my life for a cause

even thou the understanding is unclear

I see my reflection in the mirror

it deceives me and scares me

you look right through and see…

as another tear starts to dwells with in me

 I hit the floor and I don’t know if I can take anymore

as another tear comes out from with in me

 

 

I hate goodbyes the sadness it brings to my eyes.

My soul grieves and weeps

the inner side of me the darkness seeps.

But I can’t bring myself to cry so this will be the last tear that falls from my eye.
