Inner Thoughts

The darkness inside me is growing,
Slowly consuming more with each passing day.
Anger...Pain...Resentment...
The pain slowly transforming into a beast within,
a monster lurking inside me.

As the days continue, all I can do is maintain.
Try to contain the pain I feel inside,
not let the manifestations take over.

Year of empty promises, and yet I hold on.
Wondering why it's always the same.
"Just give me more time. I only see your face."
The words of a liar? Or my saving grace?

The faces of others come and go...
Years of haunting memories flash through my mind at night.
No one feels right, no one fits right.
All worse than the last.
My hopeless heart holding onto my impossible love.

The scars on my fragile heart, cemented with every tear shed.
Is it too late? Am I gone for good?

As the lights grow dim, my daydreams turn into nightmares.
I only see your face, my lost love... my impossible love.
Can I continue to hold on?
Only time will tell.
The pain from the others, and the lies you tell may let the beast take over.
Making my world a darker place.
