heartache (Remove filter)
Nostalgia
Your nostalgia is lying to you.
Life is hard now,
But it was hard then, too.
You were just younger, dumber, more care-free.
If you knew then what you know now,
Maybe then you'd see.
You'd see the heartache;
You'd see the pain;
You'd see the way they lie and shame;
You'd see that no matter what you do,
You're always going to be you.

Same Old Song
The torn remain
of what was plain
waves now ore frozen ground,
in winds that blow
cold ice and snow
and other feelings down.
There isn’t much
left in a touch
to calm the trembling hand.
For winter’s chill
falls colder still
in cloak across the land.
The settled dust
and cankered rust
guard safe against the grain,
while fading dim
from deep ...

The Clock
There’s a heart that beats
and a clock that chimes.
Moments pass as they both keep time.
Opportunities lost again.
Words don’t flow from an idle pen.
Deeds don’t come from an idle hand.
Seeds won’t grow in a barren land.
Something stalks me, something’s there.
Something haunts my every prayer.
Aggravation, life slips by.
Desperation, sleepless nights.

Almost There For You
Sailed an ocean just to reach you,
passed through a hurricane or two,
hit land to find a ring upon your hand.
I was almost there for you.
Crossed a continent to find you,
every hardship I passed through,
at ocean’s rim you were there with him.
I was almost there for you.
Does it pay to lay your heart on the line,
or believe that true love’s true?
Now I spend my time traveling on, I’m...

Piece That Is Missing
The piece that is missing
is the piece of my heart
that I threw like a stone
when our love fell apart.
Without looking I threw it
as far as I could.
Now I’m stuck with the fact…
that I’ve lost it for good.

Exit
It’s finally the day to come,
blood mixing in.
Flows like a river
through oceans of sin.
Long past the point
where the numbness was new.
Long past believing
that anything’s true.
Steel against flint,
only flash in this night.
Desperate to see
but it only ignites,
the gasoline soaked
twisted rags in my soul.
No way to stop it
and nowhere t...

A beautiful curse
Your presence in my life was a gift
for you showed me what I had missed
The deepest emotions, you showed me they exist
A love so deep is a beautiful curse
for the harder you love
the deeper it hurts
So now I find myself in agony
Learning to live with missing what once was
As well as never knowing what could've been.

I think about you
I think about you
I think about you on the good days
when everything is going well
I want to share them with you, celebrate
The first that comes to my mind is your name
I think about you on the bad days
when everything feels a little too much
I could use your hugs, your touch
Your warmth is the very thing that I need
I think about you in the moments in between
In the secon...

Final Farewell
My Darling,
You hold so much sadness in your eyes
I can almost touch the scars of your soul and cry
The twin flame I once saw in you
Turned into a stranger
Whom my heart cannot recognise
Someone I never knew
Thinking of life without you
Makes me feel as though
I will never see summertime again
And the coldness of an eternal winter fills me with woe
No matt...

Monster in the Mirror
They say that twin flames go through periods of separation
And this I know to be true
For you were right, we did need this time apart
However, I am praying it doesn’t last
I needed to discover me and you needed to discover you
Because even though we are one, our souls have still been split in two
And we needed to work on ourselves separately
In order to reunite anew

Whispers of Loneliness
Wearing a smile, but it's just a show,
Loneliness whispers, won't let go.
In the crowd's noise, a silent plea,
Heartache murmurs, longing to be free.
Behind laughter's mask, a tale untold,
Loneliness unfolds, a story unfolds.
They feed on tears, a bitter taste,
In solitude's grasp, emotions embraced.
Moving with shadows, the soul steps back,
Loneliness stay...
