Written during a desperately lost time, when I could see no light & felt worthless
"Story"
Sherri Laurier

* * *



I just told myself a story about me;
The mysteries of my life won’t let me be.
I just cried a tear for no one else but me;
It took me by surprise - I let it be.


I just had a thought – I see no reason why…
But thoughts can change with time,
And you can’t catch them even if you try.


Now you have been my love light;
You have been my flame.
The fire that we shared reverts to pain.

Dancing thru the nakedness of lonely broken hearts;
The dreams I dared present myself
Must end before they’re start…


I stand inside the emptiness of barren, desperate nights.
Sometimes I swear you call to me -
I know I can’t be right.


I just told myself a story about me…
I never realized how sad I’d be –
I just can’t hear more ---- any more about me…
No more about me – Just leave me be… … …
