Bring Me Home

Bring Me Home

By Shaire Blythe

August 25, 2017

On the river's edge,
You have no right to be here
I try to forget
But the past still haunts me

I can't seem to let go
The memories are what made me
If I don't remember
Then no one can truly save me

Those deceiving lies
Those passing lives
What brings me turmoil
Deciding to survive
Just for tonight
I'll feign my normal
And leave us right here
Peace will bring me home

On the stepping stones,
Please don't follow
I welcome alone
My true serenity

On my own or not
I know the loss of hope
Even if you're giving all you got
Only I can save me
