Ink bleeds through the paper,
Like the pain from my heart.
Like the poison in my veins
Love is deadly from the start.
Nothing to quench me
No way to feel whole.
Taking heed to others intentions
I am no longer paying their toll.
Forever stuck in this hell
With no one to fight for me.
Lost inside the darkness
With no one to hold the light for me.
I keep giving too much
Getting nothing in return.
I've been living for others
While I am of no concern.
Whatever you might chose to say
Just please stand by your word.
Because anything you have to say
Is a promise I've already heard.
Do not take me for granted
Try to appreciate what you've got.
Because this broken heart is dumb enough to give love one more shot.
I know I'm not strong enough for another battle I can't take much more.
I'm starting to question what the hell I am even fighting for.
This tender soul has been so badly severed.
Plagued with memories I wish where not remembered.
So if you are real and mean all that you say,
Dont make me a joke or just another game for you to play.
Because if you chose to hold me tight until my broken pieces come together,
Then I swear I will love you today tomorrow and until forever.
