Ignorance
Erin-Taylor Jul 2013
Tears are said to taste salty,
But I would never know,
For I wipe them briskly away,
So they'll never show.

Love is supposed to be healthy,
And give you all that you need;
Not stab you where it hurts,
And make your heart bleed.

Voices are of encourgement,
To boost up your day;
But now, all they do is spread rumors,
And no one knows what to say.

Nothing is right anymore,
And this world has turned to hell,
No one is safe here,
And even God isn't left to tell.

w.o.w.

My head still just doesnt feel quite right,
Yet I dont think its from all those drinks last night,
I'm starting to think its from hearing your voice in my ear,
Your words of encourgement made everything seem so clear.

But I'm choking on my own pride,
Thinking how times may change,
I should just go with the flow
Dont fight back against this emotional tide,
For life is an adventure,
And you gotta be brave to stay on this ride,
But I'm so tired of waiting for this pain to subside,
In your arms, is the only place I can confide.

So, I will try to drown my sorrows,
Think about how you cared,
The affection you gave; felt so borrowed,
Like you were saving it for someone different,
Your thoughts not with me,
But somewhere distant.

And now looking back on all of this,
Thinking if I was just a fun little tryst,
But,
I know even though I'm an emotional wreck,
I'm someone who deserves so much more,
I'm someone you'll definately miss.
