In A Coma (part 2)

In A Coma (part 2)

Yes I fought and I fought all in vain,
The object my own true love to gain.
I succeeded only in making me ill,
now I have to lie so quiet and still.
I remember the many good times I had,
and forget others, they make me feel sad.

I'm deep in a mist of confusion and fear,
but I think I know when my love sits near.
Like a great ocean the waves come and go,
I'm no longer free my emotions to show.
My fighting spirit they may have stilled,
but don't they know love can't be killed?

The people who hurt me I do not hate,
my only wish now is to communicate
my real thoughts about those months of pain.
Given the chance I'd go through them again.
When we were together made things worthwhile.
We put aside worries were able to smile.

The joys that we shared no one can surpass
yet they tried to break us as if we were glass,
because of the difference of colour and race.
Yes there'd be problems that we'd have to face.
Why wouldn't they leave us to try it alone
to face and cross bridges as they became known?

I try to break through and get back up above,
for the moment I feel full of peace and love.
I think I'll stay submerged a few more years,
and try to get over the heartaches and tears.
If I wait long enough I might even then find
People have changed that they can be kind!
