Tigress

Like a tiger waiting to pounce
It waits for me in the dark
It sneaks through my dreams
It covers me with dark

Its name is Heart-Ache
It moves like a shadow
And when you think you've lost it
It comes back in full force

It moves through the darkness
Which fills my mind
Seeking vunerabilities
Wanting to eat

It feeds on sorrow
Depression and sadness
I feed it to much
Since she said that terrible word

I thought i got over her
But I really didn't
The heartache her answer brought
Still waits in the dark

Waits till nights like these
When it comes out in full force
Hits me in the chest
Makes me cry inside
