War-wounded by internal turmoil,
never losing sight of the fight.
Made a deal with my own devils,
even angels knew I was right
to want to hold your hand again.
A laugh should never
become a cry,
I couldn’t let the opportunity
pass me by,
when past became present,
I heard you sigh
and all my screaming,
became a lullaby.
It was always about collecting
more of our special moments.
Not to hoard and hide away,
but to display them with pride,
like a set of favorite photographs.
A laugh should never
become a cry,
I couldn’t let the opportunity
pass me by,
when past became present,
I heard you sigh
and all my screaming,
became a lullaby.
When all confusion began again,
I wanted to drown in the heavy rain,
but I could never stop breathing.
as moments headed to an ending pain.
your fingers locked into mine.
A laugh should never
become a cry,
I couldn’t let the opportunity
pass me by,
when past became present,
I heard you sigh
and all my screaming,
became a lullaby.

For Lyric Prompt:
Time-don't let it slip away,
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday.
In time-we're all going to trip away,
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay.

Meh. My writing has just been not good lately (well, it's always not good, just worse than usual).

No problem, let me know if you can't work with this one.
Time-don't let it slip away,
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday.
In time-we're all going to trip away,
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay.

Tah, should be ok, though I'm still in brainfart mode, so might take a while.
