"Sunset Heartaches"
"Last hour of the fading sizzling sun
Picture framing my daylight faking fun
From a beating, numbing, broken heart
Warm on the flesh yet cold to the bone, Alone in bed, I finally no longer have to pretend.
Resting the tiring smiling muscles on my face, I recall a few memories that leave a bitter taste,
Really being happy many lonely nights before
Somehow I lost reason, and then some, and more.
Sunset Heartache torch fired my soul to ash
Then blew me away like a gentle kiss and my reality was gone in a flash
Left me too delicate to pull myself together
My mortality faded to weakness, then, now and forever.
Wrapped up in times where I truly acted on my beliefs
Harsh words firing through me leaving only grieve
Reassuring me that I made my life a home on cloud number nine
Then pushed me off from there leaving me hitting earth defeated, torn and blind.
Lost in denial, destroyed, beaten and ashamed.
I find myself exposed, with nothing but dreaming wings in flames"
