Authors note: I'm referring to the song: "Hallelujah"
To this day
That song haunts me
You haunt me
As tears well up
Threatening to spill over
I look into the distance
A never-ending horizon
What did you say to me
That killed me so?
My heart now shattered
I’m now broken
I told myself,
Everyday,
That you were different
That you loved me
For who I was
I guess I was wrong
To this day
Whenever I hear
That beautiful song
The tears spring to my eyes
It haunts me,
You haunt me
Nightmares now a daily occurrence
As I feel myself
Falling out of control
My false mask
Now failing me
Emotionally numb
Though I try to find
Peace and light
I put on a smile
Pretending I’m fine
To this day
When that song
Begins to play
The memories hit me
Tears now well up
Threatening to spill over
Memories always haunt me
What was it
About you that I fell for?
I was wrong
About who I thought you were
What did you call me again?
Memories haunt me
Nightmares now fill my dreams
To this day
As that song begins to play
The sweet words
Filling my ears
I can’t help, but recall
As the memories play again
Was I foolish
For loving you?
Was I foolish
For thinking you were the one?
That voicemail,
Your voice, those words
Laced with venom
Filled with hatred
I now hear
As I drift off to sleep
I wake up screaming,
