Around my waist
are the stones
I have tied
The weight
of choices made
Diverting thoughts
of a dream resigned

I repress
I evade
Total disregard
You bear the burden
and I will carry on

Throes of regret
that course through my mind
The pain
of careless ways
Divulging thoughts
of a dream resigned

I repress
I evade
Total disregard
You bear the burden
and I will carry on

The price we pay for
the things that haunt us
