Living a lonely life
that is just so coldly cruel
I forced you to turn, walk away
when you were willing to be my fool

Holding on to the painful words
I knew I wanted to say
they choked up my insides
on that dark and desolate day

A million emotive words
stabbed at my throat and heart
I found them hard to swallow
when they were of our love

A desperate and yearned for intimacy
when for me,  there was none
the seams that held me together
were finally coming undone

I pleaded to save your soul
to show that you were not lost
I almost gave it all
but feared there would be a cost

I lay here again broken,  yearning
still nursing a scarred soul,
weeping and questioning
if you even cared at all
