Shallow

I am not shallow like this world we live in.
The one I long to succeed in.
Like the ocean my pain runs deep.
Your face always corrupts the way that I sleep.

When did this world become a fight?
It’s no longer plain like black and white.
Soon the day fades releasing the night.
Your voice overrides my fading eyesight.

For you I am grieving
For you my heart is continuously bleeding.
Under my eyes a pale green bruise?
Skin under them tired because of the salt tears I have used.

The heat dries my skin it’s so dry almost crisp.
And the scars only deepen almost reaching my wrist.
When you told me you loved me I’m sure you was pissed.
I saw you’re face through the purple mist.

You called me treacle said ‘it was because I was sweet’
You adored my body, my hair to the souls of my feet.
A dark cloud covers you, am I the silver lining?
A dark cloud circles me only increasing my pining.

My fingertips shake, my senses wake.
I’m crippled by the thoughts my mind likes to make.
I wonder alone searching for your face.
I wonder alone at a snail like pace.

I am burning, sun scorching fresh freckles appearing.
Hearts beating faster to you am I nearing?
I am dreaming reaching out my hand
I am melting into grains turning into sand.

I’m still holding onto this pain.
I will wait until I’m one single grain.
I can not see through the sandstorm.
Your face appears I am reborn.

Your face fades sun darkening my skin shades.
I am yearning time ticking clock turning.
You are the one that I love the most.
So appear from the storm and reveal your ghost.
