Crystal

"CRYSTAL"

I have been bled dry,

And I am spent.

I can't come back again

I don't know what I'm coming to.

Each time I come back,

It’s a blank space.

Coming back over and over again

Makes a monkey of me

So I said to myself

Wait! Sit still and wait.

Days rolled into weeks, weeks into months

And still, nothing!

It became Crystal to me

I've learnt a lot from the blank space

I've learnt a lot from your silence

And I'll take that with me

No longer will I pray for you to come to your senses

I'll pray for me to come to my senses

I'll pray the day to come,

When I won't feel incomplete without you.

No longer will I look into the mirror,

Wishing for you to see me.

I'll look into the mirror and see me for me

No longer will I hope you come through the door,

And throw your arms around me.

I'll go on and be young for me

I will leave

I will live,

I'll go on and live, live for me.
