Here's to the loneliness in which I stand in silence

The Hard Times

Here's to the hard times,
that I have suffered deeply.
The memories that torment me,
forbidding me to move onward.
Drowning me in my own sorrows.

Here's to the sound of pain
as to which my heart does crack.
I've stumbled in the shadows.
Walking alone into the gray,
in which there is no turning back.

Here's to the tears I cry.
My sorrow bleeds within me.
I suffer the lost of love's touch.
No breath was taken as it's last.
I turn subdued and surrender.

Here's to the loneliness.
In which I stand in silence.
Torturing memories surround me,
taunting my inner strength.
I stand weakened with nowhere to run.

Here's to the thought of salvation.
A final wave to life's cold grasp.
No chance of regaining love's lost.
In my darkness I await my future.
As it swallows me whole into my despair.

Drowning me in my own sorrows.
Walking alone into the gray.
I suffer the loss of love's cold touch.
Torturing memories surround me.
In my darkness I await my future.
