My heartbeat is a bit softer
and my words are still
Hearing your voice weakens me
as I lose my will
An empty hole is fuller
than the void that cries within
Seeing your face now might make
me feel the urge to cringe
Waking up from sleeplessness
losing all my druthers
asking for the sake of god
let me pray for others
Giving in and breaking down,
losing all my hope
Staying here and dealing with,
I can't seem to cope
Where on earth did I deserve
the right to feel this way
Inside I am trying to quiet
all the newfound fray
Weighing in and checking out
arms hang by my side
The ray of sunshine I once owned,
somehow now has died

her sweet song of laughter
