Denial

Days, months, years

I've shed these tears

Regrets chased me

I hope I can be free

My life is in prison

With an unreasonable reason

My past is holding me back

In these shades of black

These chains in my hands

I can't barely stand

Chains made of silver

It makes me shiver

Memories keep flashing in my head

I don't know where it led

Chances I've failed

letters I've never mailed

Words left unspoken

My heart's broken

With one last cry

I'll bid goodbye

To this past of mine

Hope I'll be fine

In this trial

Of my own denial
