Pain hurts like a dagger in the back
Emotions spilling over, my heart is under attack
Silent as a lamb, no speech heard
Patiently waiting, but still not a word
Confusion ignited, unbelief spread like a raging fire
Hope extinguished by my one true desire
Dreaming with my eyes wide open, thought I could see
Nightmares quickly aroused, crushing my sweet fantasies
Darkness is my fate, succumbed by the apathetic truth
Courage left me half naked with an I'm sorry excuse
