~ENSHROUDED~
A struggle of pain with each beat of my heart,
As I feel I'm losing you.
A constricting web enshrouds each part,
My thoughts, are completely askew.
Everything seems to be different somehow,
Yet, you say it is still the same.
Though curtained, your smile has become a scowl,
And I'm wondering who is to blame.
Could it be me, or time or fate?
It's so hard for me to know.
Your arms are so far away from this place,
The warmth of them seeming to go.
You say I can't really give you my love,
So, should I not trust myself?
And hide my soul, high up above,
Gathering dust alone on a shelf.
You are so much a part of me,
Woven deeply in the thoughts which I bear.
Pry my eyes open and speak tenderly,
As you whisper, "I no longer care."
