The sleepless night,
Will brings to light,
The horrors past,
The pain will last.

Days become years,
The nights bring fears,
But the guilt remains,
From a love that stains.

True love was here,
Now that is clear,
She’s what you lack,
She won’t be back.

So long ago,
You’re feeling low,
You’re not that strong,
You’ve lived this long.

The shadows dance,
Like they’re in a trance,
The silence screams,
Through your haunted dreams
