Finally Alone

Recommended Posts

The future once had a name,

And she had a face,

My world it had meaning,

Once I felt so safe.

 

I had so much freedom,

There was a time to laugh,

I felt oh so alive,

I was with my better half.

 

A time I shared her love,

And she was by my side,

I felt that I did fit,

But now that has surely died.

 

She moved with grace,

Her beauty was vast,

All I could have wanted,

Was for it to last.

 

Fate had other plans,

And so did my love,

Because it fell apart,

I didn't fit her like a glove.

 

Now I have died with nothing,

Happiness, joy and love to pay,

I walk alone in this dark world.

Nothing to guide my way

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

 

 

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

 

Can't you see that you're smothering me

Holding too tightly afraid to lose control

Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take

 

 

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

 

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

 

 

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

 

 

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Ok, fine, want a sad love song?

"And ever has it been that love knows not it's own depth until the hour of separation." -

Kahlil Gibran

 

Maybe someday someone will love me

for what I am (instead of what I should be.)

Until that day I'll just sit here weeping,

chasing dreams is like shadow leaping.

 

The face behind the mirror - an unrecognised reflection,

his eyes look old and tired - filled with bitter recollection.

The cross that he has carried was a burden I have made,

It's a baptism of tears - they are the seas in which I bathe.

 

'Cause there's a fire in my heart - but I can't breathe for the smoke,

seems that I'm living proof my life's a practical joke.

There's a wind in my sails (but I have lost all my direction),

with no stars to guide me now you're not here beside me anymore.

 

Somehow, somewhere you will discover

a love so sweet that it tasted like no other,

and on that day may you both drink deep

from that grail we found - but then failed to keep.

 

It's a season I've learned well - some things just cannot be,

the key that will unlock your soul is someone else (not me).

If you should remember - hope you smile and wish me well,

as I walk my path to heaven through ten thousand miles of hell.

 

I stand alone against the cold grey sky,

it was blue that day (but not as blue as I).

I left my hearts high on that Roman hill,

I'll wait a thousand years but it will be there still.

 

Holding hands in silence as the day came to an end,

we climbed up there as lovers - then we walked back down just friends.

I've know my share of heartaches, never thought of them as bad -

but had never quite imagined I could ever feel this sad.

You know, when stuff like that happens, it is better to listen to stuff like the "Numb", makes you feel a little better.

 

However, if you really like sad songs, may I recommand:

Helloween - A tale that wasn't right

and

Helloween - Forever and one

 

Now, if you want some REALLY sad love song, you might also want to try:

Scorpions - Still loving you

And not necesarly love related, but pretty depressing:

Iron Maiden - Brave new world

I've often heard the phrase "It's better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all."

 

I'll let you know if it's true if I ever get to the first part.

It is true. I've been blessed with twice. Twice more than I deserved.

 

Thank you for the words,

Minion

I like your poem Minion. I also prefer expressing myself through poetry when I experience strong feelings - I hope it helps you to find yourself again.

 

Keep walking down the road called life.

I dont like nu metal. Listen "Ride the lightning" by Metallica and forget those kids.

 

Seconded, thirded and fourthed.

Had the same problem once... Now I can't imagine being with anyone apart from myself... I'm too sophisticated and independent for other people. That's what books and war metal do to you. :confused:

To be honest I'm often rather alone then together with someone else. I like the darkness and lonelyness. I'm not quite fitted for a social life as I am rather shy. It all has its benefits though, because of this I was able to teach myself to be strong in hard times. If I want to, I can perfectly hide my own feelings aswell, its a great thing to be able to do at some times.

 

It only goes bad when someone gets you to your limit and you let all of the feelings cropped up go in a big feeling of anger and hate. In which case you are likely to harm some friends without wanting to. And unfortunatly that has already happened to me...

Did you just write about me? I mean, I know exactly how that can be - personal experience.
