You were like a door I couldn't unlock
A stairway leading back to the beginning
Riddles that I didn't figure out
Kept me wondering, kept me spinning
Spiraling downward into the flames
That tantalized my poor heart
They lied and enticed me to believe
Answers would show me where to start
Wanting but not knowing how to find
Desperate to see a return of the same
One moment I knew what you were thinking
The next not sure if I knew your name
Running head first into the confusion
Only to find the light was dark
If I thought for one minute you knew me
I was a glowing neon easy mark
I refuse to own the misplaced blame
As much as it is my fault for trying
Looking into your eyes without falling
Would mean I had already started dying
It's not my cross to carry around
Your lack of clarity skews your vision
One person cannot abscond
Run off with another's decision
We had our chance, the moment long passed
Not a new one will be presented
No closure no words no resolution
Will keep my heart tormented
You (We) Times Just Do Not Know
How Lucky You Are...
If You Do Not Let Go Something
Will Let (IT) Go For You!
Now Turn Around Walk Away
And Do Not Never Look Back...
TRASK...
Will keep my heart tormented." Very strong words, keep the faith, Cherry!

Talk about telling it so there is no confusion about your meaning. I understand about writing about the same thing so long. I had many years living in the dark, and although not so much these days I still find myself writing about the dark days ever so often.
