Staring at a blank wall
inside this cell I sit
a prison of my doing
to the jail bars I submit
Then upon the wall playing
the movie of my life
the bridges I burned, so many,
too many scars, my knife.
The bittersweet memories
I should be making even still
the moment I saw her first
a healing balm, a pill
A miracle of passion
that fixed my soul, so broken
the pieces glued together
by her gaze, it was unspoken.
I don't recall unimportant things
I cast all them aside
but burned inside my brain
the moment she became my bride.
It was joy unspeakable
something I never knew
no dreamer could've imagined
the love between us two.
And as I watched my life pass by
the film continued to roll
the moment of impact
when I failed and broke her soul.
I didn't see it coming
it was suppose to last forever
we promised a lifetime day and night
but in a moment it was severed.
And when that time came
I ceased to be alive
nothing could shock me back
no miracle kept me alive
Yet I still walk the earth
my body just a shell
so alone in this cell I sit
in my own personal hell.
And it doesn't seem to matter
the how, the who, the when
my heart just stopped beating
in the year 2010.
