Like a wild coyote struggling to stay adrift when alone
your memories drown me in a state of sorrow
days of joy and happiness long lost
whence our paths crossed
What lessons are to be learned? What tribulations to be borne?
My mind is famished with hunger
seeking answers would never know
I’ve kept you safe in my heart for long
it hurts like a wound gone sore
slowly devouring my soul
I want to live my life, forgetting myself
paving the price for what have treasured in my mind
If sanity in me has to endure, I have to let you go
Devoid of you is my chosen path
an arduous battle filled with strife
challenges that are my own
This constant war within me
will hurt and burn you
drowned in the desire of passion that runs wild
in our veins this fire will consume us both.
