sever ties with me
and break away
let freedom reign
for one more day
the ropes are cut
regrets are many
though i will not
admit to any

reside in me
a light untrue
incandescently
it shines toward you
a gold facade
of happiness
a secret soul
in great distress

i won't worry you
with petty fears
for i fear not,
have not in years
except that you
would leave, be gone
to drown in life
blindly move on

as colors fade
they turn to black
sanity gone
it won't come back
build up the pain
which you did ease
lost in myself

...carressing memories...
