Astray Poem by Nyrical Poet

Batteries to a flashlight that brightens your path
Bleeding on the inside as the pain becomes your wrath
Taking all the responsibility to overload your mind
Blinded by the short term happiness that you will find

As you wither dead from the mid afternoon sun
Like charcoal to fire, as the flames fiercely burn
Broken, shattered, transforming into ashes
From a bleeding heart, and a deathly disaster

Your heart's on your sleeve for painful viewing pleasure
Tormented by everyone, but I promise it is not forever
Waiting for the one to take away all this pain
Someone to love you back, and tell you it is all okay

Raise up from this fiery trench with all your ashes in tact
Emotions from the saddened sea, tears that you now lack
Your true happiness laid before you, it is so hard to see
It is the mystical world around you, which does include me

As long as you know, and that you fully comprehend
You will make mistakes from what is real and what is pretend
Your faith in your heart, what you want and desire
The fate of the world is yours, sweetheart, I am your admirer
I promise you with all of my heart that everything will be okay
As your happiness unfolds, while the past goes astray
