197. The Place You Once Were

Published on 14 December 2016 at 14:48

While I lay here in my bed,

all these thoughts inside my head,

I’ve tried so hard to fall asleep,

but my nightmares won’t let me be.

 

The world is there, I know this,

and there’s the girl I’ve yet to kiss,

She’s waiting there in my dreams,

but all I could find were memories.

 

I fear I must’ve been too late,

as I always lay there wide awake.

I thought then that I’d never return

to the place where you once were.

 

But somehow, I found my way back

to the memories once painted black,

and I tore each memory apart.

memories now of a bleeding heart.

 

I could see now, the memories of you,

as we painted the whole sky blue.

And I knew then that we’d never return

to the place where we once were.
