When I see you I smile,
I kiss you, and am embraced by you.
It used to all see from the heart, now it's just an act.

I wish it to be like before, only for it to worsen.
I keep control of myself in the presence of you and other.
When inside I am broken, shattered.

You told me you loved me,
That you would always be faithful to me.
Lie after lie, I believed it to be true.

Suspicions of deceit, I ignored.
For I trusted you, and that trust you abused.
For so long you let me live in a blinded truth.

When truth came to show,
My suspicions were right all along.
My foolish love clouded my judgment, and  the real you I never knew.

You cheated on all the others,
Why did I believe that I would be different.
We planned out our futures, a child on the way.
Even a wedding someday.

No longer am I blind. I now see everything.
My trust, my love, my desire for you will never be that same.
In my blindness you embraced me, said you loved me, forever faithful to me.

It angers me to know that I had once loved a cheaters embrace.
Engulfed my self in a cheaters kiss.
All untrue, now to me and you.

For you cheating was left our love lost in an unseen mist.
My trust in you, forever gone.
My love to you, forever hesitant.

Your Consequences
How can I sleep, when every time I close my eyes nightmares haunt me?
What scares me the most is the they've already come true.
And now my fear is of the past repeating itself.

I awake crying, craving your comfort and understanding.
In the end I'm left a lone because you become angry,
Wishing that I would forget the horrible act you had committed.

Your wish is hopeless because forgetting???
No, never.
It's so hard to trust you like I once did.

You say it was stupid, and an act of anger.
That you were just needing a "stress reliever".
All due to an argument that was simply nothing.

Your revenge? You got it.
You surpassed your goal,
Threw our wonderful relationship out the window.

Now trusting you is almost impossible.
Every thought of that day infuriates me.
Every day, every night, it haunts me.

There was so much between us, to you I suppose,
Wasn't anything at all.
Nothing will ever go back to how it used to be.

Looking at the consequences you set up for yourself,
Is it what you've done you regret, or is coming clean?
You say it's the regret of your deceiving act, to you that maybe true.

And I? In my heart,
I do not believe I will ever know.
Or that I could ever put my heart and soul in to our relationship.

I can love you for all it's worth.
I can even forgive you and forever be there for you.
In the end though, I do believe I will always resent you.

Silently Broken
How is it that I always believe every word without question?
Shouldn’t I know better by now, after all the times I’ve been hurt?
After knowing what to look out for,
Seeing all the signs that another makes you happy?

I still try to delude myself that it’s just one of my minds tricks.
Only lately, things seem to be harder to ignore.
The pain in my heart increases,
Already knowing and accepting what the mind keeps rejecting.

What kind of life is it, when all you do is try to delude yourself?
Convincing yourself that everything is perfect when you know it’s not.
You live in fear of losing the one most important to you,
When, ironic enough, you’ve already lost them.

Every day you pretend all is still perfect,
Knowing that perfect is the exact opposite.
The more you carry on the more your heart breaks.
You put on a good show though, so no one will know.

The day finally comes where it all has to end.
Although, knowing what to expect,
Thinking there is nothing left inside to break,
Your whole body crumbles.

There seems to be nothing left,
No strength. No hope.
Just a broken heart,
Silently broken, never to mend.

Missing Pieces
What happened to being your number 1?
What happened to being the one you cared the most about?
What happened to the times when you'd go to any length to see the one you say you Love most dearly?

All those things you once said now seem to mean nothing to you anymore.

Did they ever really?
Can you even answer honestly?
Or will you try to find an excuse to cover for your actions?

You stole the thing that people try to protect the most.
The Heart.  You were suppose to keep it safe.
Instead you played with it, and took it apart like a puzzle.

Now there's pieces missing.

You keep them hidden well,
Knowing they'll never be found.
The location kept secret in your mind.

Please give the pieces back.

Not knowing is terrifying.
Not being whole is miserable.
I want to be whole again and only you can make that possible.

Please give the missing pieces back.

Even through it all my love remains the same.
Despite all the pain.
Despite all questions unanswered.

I still love you.

Release
Anger can consume ones whole mind and body.
Encaged, it fights to break free.
You fight to stay in control,
But just a single tear is a sign, a trophy, showing that Anger has won.
And you have lost pathetically.

After so much pain, so much confusion
The tears become more frequent.
Like water from a stream, flowing down the ***** of a mountain.
Perhaps it cries too, then.

Despite all inhabitants in the surrounding environment,
Loneliness is felt.
All thought is lost, word's take by the wind.
No voices are heard, everything has gone mute.

All that is left to do is to find an escape,
A way to release all which you hide inside.

Invisible
Clear as a ghost or Invisible as a bat
One of us has become.
When seperation occurs all thoughts of us,
Of me, are forgotten.

What will it take to make you remember?
Calls not returned, questions unanswered,
Evenings filled with lonesome silence.
What can I do to change all these things?

There are times that pass without touch,
Without a word simply spoken.
Attempts at affection so easily seen,
Yet, to you, so blind. So unseen.

The lack of awareness pains me deeply.
Afraid that your love fading is a possibility.
You say that is impossible,
So why do you make me feel so invisible?

A crime, it seems, to be overwhelmed with aggravation.
Why is it wrong to change the unpleasant?
Why is it wrong to crave your constant presence?
Can you answer me this: Are my desires from ignorance?
There seems to always be a tear in my eye, when you're not here.
For when you're away ther is always the possibility of no return.
You put your life at risk, for who?
For those who could careless and waste their freedom on drugs?
The country you fight for, is not worth it anymore.
I wish for you to be here, and help take care of our family.

WE need you!!! The little ones ask:
"When is daddy coming home?"
They think you're at work, so I tell them to be patient.
Just a little while longer.
They're to the age to realize you may never be back.

Laying in my Bed at night, I ask why.
Why does god prolong your return?
Why I must lie to my children,
Not knowing if you're dead or alive.

Our letters seem to be the only thing Keeping my hope a live.
For the day, They Stop coming, will be the day my world crashes.

I heard there was an accident.
State Marshalls pulled up,with a envelope in there hands.
My knees buckled.
They said they found your lifeless body, in a pile of sand.

Now, you're never coming home.
Our children rage. Wanting to know why.
All because you felt the need to fight for a country.
A country based on Lies.

I tell them our stories.
And how much you loved them,
How much you Never meant to leave them.
For weeks we shared the same tears.
Constantly carrying them in our eyes.
Every plane, every loud noise,
I start to cry. If it were not for our children,
I would surely Die.

Shield Your Heart
Light comes with day
Darkness comes with night
Listen to your heart; it’s usually always right.
Keep it hidden, locked away.
Don’t let anyone in, make sure all stay out.
Make sure your lock is nice and stout.

You must not let your guard fall,
For if you do, then so will you.
They’ll take advantage if you let them in.
Lead you to believe all their lies and rip your heart apart.
Their love is false, you can feel it in your heart.

Don’t fall for their act,
For all love is, is a lifelong trap.
If you see them blindly, you won’t see your landing.
You won’t see their deceit until it’s too late.
Not until you’ve given your heart; for them to break.

So shield your heart, lock it away.
Don’t you let anyone in, for if you do……  
It will only be anger and pain you will feel in the end.
Keep it safe, don’t be a fool.
For love can be exceedingly cruel.

Self Torment
When your soul is shattered, How  do find the will to continue on?
All you feel is loneliness and sorrow. Isolating all from your life, you begin.
Some worry and question your actions,
You wish to vent, but not towards others,  
For the fear of letting them in.
You believe they can not understand,  
That they will only judge.

For each pain and regret you feel inside,
There is a slash.
A slash of wounded flesh.
What was once internal has now become external.
You turn the emotional into physical.
You feel and think as if each healing will weaken your sorrowful feeling.
As each wound is healed, a scar is left. It represent apart of you.
It represent all the pain You put me through.

All those you once held near, now turn their backs.
You see now that you should have accepted their help.
You now wish you could back track.Now they will not understand your actions,  
For you will not receive a chance to explain.
You believed to keep them from worrying, only to make it worse.  
So now the isolation of everyone has become true.
With no one to ever accompany you.
And now forever you’ll be,
A victim of your minds treacherous torment.

A Nights Thoughts
I lay in the darkest of fields, staring into the nights stars
Thinking of you. Of my trust that I put in you.
You say that you will never hurt me,  
Nor break your promises like those before.
How do I know that when I feel like I hardly know you at all.

The promises you make, you say you'll keep.  
You're determined to-in them- make me believe.
But I'm scared of disappointment,
So to believe, I refuse.  
I wish it were different,  
Unfortunately it's not.

Will it ever be?
That I do not know.  
I guess in time,
The result result will eventually show.

— The End —
