tarbaby's blog: "some poetry I wrote"

I lay awake, and long for sleep 
The wind outside makes the willows weep 

I hear, so well the lonley cries 
I remember every tear that fell from my eyes 

But I quit crying when the liquor ran out 
and I made myself so strong again some how 

I buried every moment of what once was you and I  
I vowed to every star up in the sky... 

That the very depths of hell would freeze before I'd shed another tear  
That I would overcome the pain, the hurt, and the fear... 

But as the thoughts of you, as if carried by that wind 
Like a shadows whisper, gentley seep in 

They tease my mind, they trick and decieve 
the flames of hell are beginning to freeze
