I am exactly the way you left me In the wintery day you said I wasn't worthy The snow has turned me to ice Like the words spit from your lips turned my heart to glass So easily shattered Icebergs of the past revealing the truth of thousands of years in hiding Brittle bones and DNA As if you didn't know pain is only temporary But traces of love last forever No matter how broken I am Memories of completeness linger at the back of my mind Surface back in my dreams like ice cubes in water Slowly dissolving, transparent and ever changing Ever alive A few deep breaths and I see smoke From the dragon lungs I own Since the day you turned my heart to ashes And every season it burst aflame again Each time a breath comes out So does the smoke from my burned spirit And I am back on track Not the girl I once was But stronger and weaker at the same time Hard to love And be loved Hard to break Too tough for you Sparks flew then it was over And the only memories I own are those the flames consumed With burning passion the love evaporated in the heat Just like the breath of life I insuflated in your lungs With my cold cold soul
I am exactly the way you left me And moving on isn't easy
