Downhill From Here
Folder:
2005 - 2006 I poured out words in ink
The shallowness of my deepest cliché
Well, I guess it really got me nowhere
And somewhere in the emotion bone birthed breath
The loneliness crept across the page in the form of regret
And in the end it’s all I ever let you see
Now there’s nothing here
No quenching antidote to unclench these fists
No simple answer to undo all this mess
No pill or poison now to quicken the fix
It’s all downhill from here
Recollect the words you said to me
I remember how they rolled off so casual
Though unaware I took them with sincerity
I am aware now that you are with me
Though not in mind or spiritually
You are the pain I feel, indelibly
Though forgiveness came and went
I’m still waiting for the healing to begin
Now there’s nothing here
No quenching antidote to unclench these fists
No simple answer to undo all this mess
No pill or poison now to quicken the fix
It’s all downhill from here
Though forgiveness came and went
I guess it really got me nowhere and nothing
Except further down on my knees
And a pen lacking of ink
