In the wake

IN THE WAKE    

Heartbreak







What's left in the wake?



Demolished home i'm left alone

Raped and robbed on the outside I roam



In the wake



Drenched, battered , fatigued

As I internally bleed

On my knees I stare at the storm

as it abruptly leaves



In the wake



Grab my chest as I feel the ache

A chasm occupies this place

A gaping void has taken my heart's space



In the wake



Before you even have a chance to think

These violent winds don't give a chance to blink

It feels the end of the world, or maybe the brink



In the wake



Look up to the sky and ask god why?

You seemed like you gave your all and tryed

God dammit i'm not ready to say goodbye



In the wake



I stand around look at the debris

A barren wasteland as far as I can see

Anger soon comes when sorrow flees



In the wake



Will things ever be the same?

This downpour of pain

You can't hide in your swept away shelter

So you feel that rain







In the wake



I'm weary i'm so tired

Stripped away is my desire

To rebuild this fragile abode

I guess from the bottom, I only can go higher



In the wake



I live in reflection

Did I come short of perfection?

It's come time to dual my Life long enemy

Rejection



In the wake



I sit here and wallow

where my residence stood

That won't do me no good



As I look around beyond my own

theres thousands of wrecked neighborhoods



So I decided to not only rebuild mine. help rebuild theirs

We're all naked and bare

Our storys we'll share



In the wake
