Imagine

by Bartimaeus

Here I lie in my bed, the deathly music running through my head…
I dont think it will take long, before I play my swan song…
For every day and every night, I get ever closer to my greatest fright…
In my hand I hold the blade, as the light in my heart begins to fade…

The darkness closes in on me, as I let go of my unheard plea…
I call out to God one more time, before i fall to the floor to weep and cry…
I see my tears flow to the floor, as my heart engages in an endless war…
I hate that everything ends this way, all because of yesterday…

Why cant things be as they were before, when our love for each other never wore…
I built a fortress around your heart, but you tore it down and broke it apart…
I can never trust you with my heart again, so all I can do is imagine…

    Oh…
    That is the most emotional thing I’ve read in a long time. Amazing meter, as well.
    Dearheart, this happens. It happens. Life happens. Heartbreak happens. It is far nobler indeed to go on living a life the “betrayer” will be sore about having missed out on.
