Hidden in the lies and deceit <br />I still lay awake in the restless nights <br />Thinking of a once colourful past <br />Covered in smiles and un-dying, darkened love. <br /> <br />What of it now? Everythings in a storm <br />Re-taking my steps to walk alone again <br />But all is in vain, the road is un-even <br />I stumble with nothing to nothing to soften my fall. <br /> <br />Still licking the wounds <br />Of cuts opened wide so long ago <br />The flesh invisible <br />But the blood still pours. <br /> <br />The feeling long gone <br />The look still here <br />To touch again in the same way? <br />I love you enough to keep you alive.<br /><br />Dean Simpson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hidden-away-in-the-darkness/
