Yellowed Pages

Cigarette burns on a bruised soul
Thoughtless actions that tear me open
Barely visible but pulsing from below

Now I am just a faded cliff note in a book of life
A page left yellowed and stained
Some meaningless words of forever
Now all that is left is pain

Terrified of a clock that is ticking
Counting down to pending doom
Am I the only one left breathing
Left behind to face these nightmares alone?

Pulsing, pushing, beating from below
Ignored and muted in order to hang on
Steadily rising to the surface
Like a slowly gathering storm

Just a faded cliff note in a book of life
A page left yellowed and stained

Empty words spoken in a passionate fit
All of that has started to fade
Silently vaporize and blow away
