Melting Sands

I sit upon these melting sands
Knowing no one understands.
You've stripped my hope and fed my fear.
You stole my soul, then left me here.

The burning sun, the scorching moon,
The stars sing a bitter tune.
You stand there proudly, mocking me
And knowing all that I can be.

One time you loved me as your own,
Not seeing love was only loaned.
Now you hate all that I am,
All I've done, all I've been.

You hold onto every mistake,
Every choice I've ever made.
For all those times I've tried to please
You paid my blood despite my plea.

I sit upon these melting sands
While you refuse to understand.
Only you can mend the heart
Of the child that you tore apart.
