I've read some lovely work here and just thought I might share a bit of my own...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Again

Alone again
Scared again
Darkness swallows your soul
and I watch you drown
again
Banging again
Screaming again
I watch from the sidelines
not knowing answers
again

Silent again
Shut off again
Buried the pain below
but not far enough
again
Tried again
Cried again
Hurt that your trust in me
is not fully whole
again

Let me In
And I'll be Your Light
Illuminate your fears and
Chase them thru the Night

Let me in
And I'll be your guide
I will show you the way
right there by your side

Walk away again
Ignore me again
Push me away thinkin'
I could leave like them
again
Stand by again
Wait for again
Shattered confidence in
the power of love
again

Forget it again
Laugh thru it again
Cling to the hope that it
won't come around
again
Pretend again
Hold you again
Show you my only want
is you to feel loved
again

Oh, won't you let me in

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Memory Shroud

Wretched everpresent paranoia
of a prior stake on the beat
Drowned intentions of
the noble warrior
Come Calling to
question the blood
flowing through the vein
That speaks the song and
does not dance
in moonlight nor ray
When doves call
through breath and veil
But never to stay

Nice.
