the words have yet to complete their form

my heart being where they were born

they are caged and captive in my head

while i lay feeling safe in bed

the sound of my breathing lulls me to sleep

into dreams, my dark abyss that runs so deep

when my nights are haunted by the past

giving no warning as they rush in so fast

wishing i could be calmed by just a touch

my scars scream with pain, so very much

and i know what will never be

my soul to be forever free

i know that truth and trust is just a fake

and it's not a risk i'm willing to take

i've heard the words many times before

and always someone walks out the door

yet still i wish, i wonder how it is to feel

to know there is someone who is for real

someone that loved me for me

everything..... unconditionally
