Where I Abide
My anguish departs the shadows
Dancing in and out of the monochrome.
Your words spew forth, as cold as ice.
Errupting from your heart of stone.
What you feel your soul is
Born from the ash of a cold embers fate.
Vastness of gray depletes the shadows.
Your manipulation has been quite ornate.
You justify your hateful words.
Believing the validity of your selfish plight..
The pain you feel is your entitlement,
Because two wrongs don't make a right.
I've never dared deny my faults.
I own up to the blame that is mine.
But despite your forgiveness, and my efforts and change,
Forlorn in your judgement I will abide.
Dancing in and out of the monochrome.
Your words spew forth, as cold as ice.
Errupting from your heart of stone.
What you feel your soul is
Born from the ash of a cold embers fate.
Vastness of gray depletes the shadows.
Your manipulation has been quite ornate.
You justify your hateful words.
Believing the validity of your selfish plight..
The pain you feel is your entitlement,
Because two wrongs don't make a right.
I've never dared deny my faults.
I own up to the blame that is mine.
But despite your forgiveness, and my efforts and change,
Forlorn in your judgement I will abide.
