True Loves Despair

I held him last night

  In my arms as he cried

  Wanted to soothe him

  I felt so helpless

    In the light of his despair

How can you deal

  With all the pain inside your head?

How can you sleep

  When the demons scream so loud?

I try to talk it out

  But no words can express

  His misery and grief

    Nor dispell his loneliness

  Alone in a nightmare

  He can never escape

    Trapped by the walls

      Of his own self-hate.


  What have you done

    That this is just punishment

          For your sins?

  Who did you wrong

  That you feel you deserve this?

I love you so much

  I don't care about your past

  I just pray for our future.

How can you deal

  With all the pain inside your head?

How do you sleep

  When the demons scream so loud?
