Letter To A Lost Soul
By: Sarah Reed
There I go again, words spilling from my mouth
Pouring out countless thoughts of rambling nonsense
Once again, my head explodes with meaningless thoughts of fatuity
And I cannot make it stop
Again and again I visit this place thats held in the depths of my mind
A place full of outrage and counter curses of rotting memories
All that exists is the decomposing corps of my undistinguishable past
I sing a sweet melody of sympathetic regret
All the while I sit staring blankly out the windows crystal glare
The darkness of the night surrounds me in a distorted unrecognizable sense of loneliness
My eyes are heavy with anguish, but I cannot seem to sleep a wink
Blindly I look for you through the thick blanket of snow
And silently I shed a tear, for I know that you are not to return back to me
Dear sweet Muse of tails unknown sing to me a story so sweet
Let the words ring in my ears and capture my dark soul
A distinct aroma fills the air and a smile dances across my lips
I know it is only my imagination running away from me,
But, the alluring scent of lavender, is you
I shut my eyes but only for a moment in time
And I invision your angelic face
You extend your hand to me, and I reach out to hold it,
But, I quickly remember, its only make believe
I open my eyes, as tears begin cascading down my flushed cheeks
The light from the clock that is placed upon my beau-row flashes off my glistening tears
For hours I sit in the same place, wishing away the time
And hoping it all was a simple nightmare
Why did it all have to end up this way?
I gladly would trade places with you
But, I dont belong in a heavenly paradise
Dear sweet angel from above, this letter I write to you
Is not to upset you, but to let you know that tonight, I am letting go of your sweet memory
For so long Ive held onto the past and I simply need to move on
I will always hold you near to me, but I am letting go of the burden of death
This is no good-bye I am simple shutting the door so I can begin a better life
I bid you fair well, and all my love to you
-forever, me
