Dark clouds shrouding me

The street lights sparkle in the dew of the morning air. The city lies awake as if unaware of the time of day. All seems so alive though it is mostly asleep, nothing but moving shadows of the sleepwalker's dream. I wish I could walk among the midnight stars, glare up into the sky and just close the doors. If only my past stops haunting me, this sleepwalker will not be walking within her dreams. Only for tonight maybe i tell myself. This one last time, I know I should confess.. Maybe love was meant to leave me to bleed, maybe its my flaw, my pain to breathe. Every sin I sin in vain, for every shadow just remains. Lurking in the dark corners of my thoughts, coming only when I'm hurting most. Mostly when I lie awake, when I open my eyes to a brand new day. It always starts seeing your face. Knowing I can't have you with me throughout the day. Now I find the world turns dark, everytime I hear another door shut. Right in my face you leave me to think. Leaving your trail of betrayal not far behind, you pretend that you're still mine. Let me off this hook that cuts so deep, let me loose from the hanging cliff.
