Sitting in a room
No windows or doors
Painting the walls red
As i fall to the floor
I drift to a place
With unmarked graves
Searching and hoping
That i will see your name
You are dead to me
Have been for a while
Your heart bled for me
But that, too, was a lie
I smile at your memory
For you will never change
Your destiny in life
Is to cause nothing but pain
You made me stronger
And now i can fight
I am not scared now
No more running to hide
Thank you for the pain
Thank you for the lies
Thank you for everything
You have bettered my life.
I don't need you anymore
For my soul has gotten dark
I'll wait here in the shadows
Waiting for your heart to stop
Don't beg me for mercy,
For I will show you none.
With your blood flowing
I drink you and I'm done.

I look across the velvet sky
And feel your soul so near
I hear the words "I love you"
Floating in the air...
I watch the desert skyline
In hopes of signs of life
When I need you most
I'll see you standing there
Forever lost, with out you
My soul is calling out
I feel your arms around me
It melts away my doubt.
I am your's forever
You're mine as well.
We live forever, day by day,
With our love we aren't alone.

Lost in the shadow
Of your unmarked grave
I lay here bleeding to death
Waiting for your touch to comfort me...
I see your soul before me
Telling me its not my time
My blood is all around me
Why are you so blind?
A stranger takes my hand
Leading me away
I know it will be okay
I'll die another day.....

Souls, dancing on the moonlight
Love, playing by the firelight
Breath, falling off of summer's breeze
Sweat pouring from the pleasure of our sins
A shared laugh, in the dark of night
A knowing glance, flowing to a lover's eyes
A hungry touch, gracing both our skin
A deep love and passion, rooted in our hearts
A sudden sound
And the dream ends
The tears flow
Just a memory
He's gone now
His spot is cold
Her heart is dead now
For her soul's alone.

There's a hole in my heart
Where you are meant to be
That space is empty now
For you are away from me
You are the heart and soul of me
Your quiet touch lingers
The sweat of your skin
Leaves dew drops on my memory
Half of me is missing
A huge void in my soul
My side is bleeding
From what was taken away
I sit in this quiet prison
Looking at the moon
Your voice on the wind
Telling me its time to come home.
I'm fearful without you
Your memory keeps me sane
I'm never truly without you
As long as I can remember your name
©Andrea Edwards (GothicRavenGoddess), March 15,2008
The warm breath of you
The lingering touch from you
The quiet smile from you
The hidden blush of you
The slow dance of us
The secret pleasures from our love
The cherished memories with you
The beautiful gift from me
The beating heart from my chest
The quiet confession of love
The breath of fresh air
The sigh of relief
The shared moonlight
The dreaded good-bye
Then dawn comes
And we both turn to dust
Our love dances on the wind
We are but a fleeting memory
In the eyes of man

Trapped in my day-to-day
My thoughts never yielding,
I can't find solace in anything
I lack my sanity,
My words my only friend
Even they aren't kind.
Living hour by hour,
Nothing is guaranteed.
His smile sustains me...
Liquid gold on my lips
Thoughts fly out my finger tips
My brains all foggy...
Miss my Care Bear like crazy...
Can't wait to be back in the 803
Don't know when that will be...
Finding a job in MI
Is as easy as winning the lottery...
"When you're gone...
My heart is missing you
When your gone,
The face I came to know
Is missing, too..."
Keeps playing in my head...
Sometimes I feel so dead...
Fear full of loathing
Heart full of dread....
tap tap tap
and my thoughts are dead...

I can remember
The contours of your body
But not the shape of your face.
I can remember
The touch of your fingers
But not the heat of your hands.
I can remember
The Smile on your lips
But not the sound of your laugh
I can remember
The feeling of your whispers
But not the words that were said
I stumble around
Searching for what's missing
The part of my soul
That was ripped away
Why won't the wound heal?
Why won't the pain disappear?
Why do I still need you?
The memories hurt so much
I just want to forget
But part of me is gone
The hole will never go away
The part of you that I remember
Is what haunts me the most
But despite the pain that you have caused
I forgive you, still

I'm lost inside
Can't find my way out of the maze
He was waiting, at the finish line
Now, he's another demon
He makes things worse
In trying to make them better
He smiles in desperation
Hoping I'll reach for his hand
I need more friends than lover
Open minds, hearts, sins
To reconnect to my past lives
To know that I'm okay
I scream in frustration
No one hears it, but me
Drowning in the light
Wanting someone to save me
(not sure who)
Pick a number
Wait in line
My insanity is my only attraction
(that's just my insecurity talking)
I only want myself
Smiling...
Is that my true desire?
Maybe you'll know
A wrong turn, now
Another obstacle to overcome
A whispered laugh, now
Is somebody watching me?
Fall flat on my face
Fail, with another wrong turn
Closer to the center
Instead of the finish line
Come find me in your hidden nightmares
Drown me in the shadows of your life
Wipe my blood-stained tears away
And lick my blood from your fingertips
I see the finish line
A figure stands in the darkness
Calling out my name...
Can you tell me who he is?

I'm over you
I'm over the sight of you
The touch of you
The breath of you
I'm over the pain of you
The tortured spirit of you
The hurt inside of you, I cannot fix
I'm over the drug abuse
The fact I can't save you
The fear for your life
I'm over your love for me
You took so long to admit
I'm over the fake you
The real you
The somewhere in between
I'm over the Italian side
The hateful side
And the hidden sweet side
I'm over your love of God
Your loyalty to sin
And your desperation for forgiveness
I'm over your chef side
Your creative side
Your lazy side
I'm over your love for The Misfits
Your love for 'Halloween"
And "She"
I'm over your eyes
The smile of you
The quiet laugh from you
I'm over the heart and soul of you
And I am not afraid to love again

Gear God, my death amuses me
Why should I care when
Your touch abuses me
Death is a much nicer friend
Can you ask him to come out and play?
I rather have him, then be your friend for a day
Dear God, Death took my pain away
Do you exist? I'll find out in an our or so
Dear God, the poison is in my veins, now
(oh wait, that's you)
You and death gave up on me today
Its not funny how you play
You left me standing here again today
Alone in my solitude
I'll have to find another friend to play

In a world where your fate is somewhat twisted
Doing what you're told
And what they've insisted
Life without unblinking eyes and cookie cutouts
What, in this life, is worth living for?
What do people really care for?
Life without meaning, or progress, or sound
No real life to actually be found
No music, no love, all deaf-toned ears
Emotionless hugs, and meaningless kiss
Children being born
Not knowing what love is
All crime's screams
Are fully ignored
Blood on the sidewalk
Just stepped over
Fighting for your own gain
Instead of the greater good
Individuality is lost, as conformity takes over
The world is a stage
No one's putting on a show
Walking through the meaningless day-to-day,
I am your break from reality
I am your acid trip
I am your dirty little secret
And I am here to stay
