I found my memories, where they lay,
Inside my hollow mind.
I wonder what else there is that I will come to find.
The memories may be a blessing,
I did not know were there,
Yet I know they could be frightening,
To think them I should not dare.
Perhaps they'll unlock my past,
One I don't want to see,
Though their absense makes me empty,
Keeps a hole inside of me.
Should I watch my memories,
Like the motion pictures play?
Or leave them where they've settled,
In the corner of my brain?
They could show me a new world,
Or the world I've tried to leave behind.
For now I'll let them sit there,
Inside my hollow mind.
Her face scarred, she tries to hide.
Her heart like porcelain,
Broken into so many little peices.
Screaming won't do anything.
It's just the blackness of the night sky surrounding her.
No one else is here,
But she can feel it.
Something is behind her,
Breathing on her neck,
Following her,
A presence.
Nothing can save her now.
Nothing could ever save her,
Not from her own insanity.
She tries to run, but can't escape from this burden,
That drives her insane.
And she realises that nothing can help her,
Simply because the burden is her mind.
Her heartbreak.
Herself.
I thought, just for a moment,
That maybe I heard my heart beat,
Beat once again with love and compassion,
Burn with the happiness I once lost.
I thought I heard it thud,
Like a drum, like a beat,
Like it used to whenever I saw you,
But those days are gone.
Maybe it'll beat again,
If I'm lucky, if I have hope,
But this time was just a fake,
Just an echo of the past.
Just an echo of my heart.
