MOCKS IN THE SHADOWS
FAITHE HALTTE
Did I not ever see this coming?
I stand now the same way you found me
Sealed to the core with a broken heart
I was left with nothing
Just pain I can’t contain
Just rain I can’t contain
Have we not gone through this before?
I hurt you and you hurt me
Nothing compares to this
Our pain destructive, alike
You swore you’d never leave me behind
I remember that night
Our second first night
When we climbed your mom’s roof and swore it was love at first
sight
“We always have to remember to not let one nor the other go”
It was like hearing a preacher’s mind
All a fantasy but it sounds so right
When it was your turn to leave, I tried with all of my might
You smiled and said I would be fine
Then you left with him
I remember when we were intertwined
Felt like Heaven and Hell combined
Although it may not sound right, I’m glad you were able to find
Someone to give you love and lust
Someone to feel and hear
All I hear are phantoms of us
Mocking our laughs
Mocking our moans
Mocking our love
Just fear I can’t contain
Just noise I can’t contain
