This is actually a song I wrote... but lyrics are poetry anyway.
I'm Here Now
(Verse 1)
Thoughts are fought and lost until,
the world of darkness makes them real.
Here I am, alone and left behind.
Many years of sick deceit,
crawling blind, knocked off my feet.
The fear lies in the things I want so much.
(Chorus)
I'm here now, watching me on the ground,
I'm lost and gone forever never to hold her.
(Verse 2)
Illusions lie, I'm lost in fear.
A life once lived, but lost again.
I cannot lie and make it go away.
Symptoms of eternity.
Alone and lost in disbelief.
Will I crash and burn because I feel?
(Chorus)
I'm here now, watching me on the ground,
I'm lost and gone forever never to hold her.
(Interlude)
All of this time that I'm lying and dying,
telling myself that I'm fine but I'm crying.
All of this life is so lost and confusing.
I'm so sick and tired of being abused and,
(Chorus)
I'm here now, watching me on the ground,
I'm lost and gone forever never to hold her.
I'm here now, hold me close, you're too late,
you waited too long to show me, now I'm lost and gone.
