My tears ink down the story,
of a deafening loud silence I hold.
Darling, its my art which speaks to you,
'bout the pain my soul withholds!

i wish i never ran out of words
i wish my emotions found a better way out rather than expressing themselves in tears
i wish i knew how to fight those toxic battles
i wish i knew how to swim the ocean of failures
i wish i didn't feel tormented all through
i just wish i could get anaesthetic to all the pain they put me into!

He is waiting for someone else
to put the words into his mouth
instead, he would say out loud his own.
And as pretending the singing,
he merges into unpossessed voices
hiding his song in the noise.
I cannot make out his words, though:
I misread his lips - mistaking a pop song for a pray;
a lip-synced psalm,
and believe every word he shares.
You
kept secrets.
As did I.
Difference is, yours broke
Me.

Yes, you were honest with me, but it hurt. And these words are slowly softening the blow.

I won't deny
But it hurts to admit it
It hurts to say it
The words
Hanging in
Not wanting to go out

It hurts to say
That I'm still not over you
That i still think about you

I know you're happier now
It hurts me to say
But I'm glad you're happy with her

I'm sorry for not being  good enough
I'm glad you have her now

It hurts to say
But I'm happy for you.

Why
Why do we live
If not for love
Why do we give
If not for love
Why do we dream
When we're in love
Why don't you leave
If you no longer love
Sara Apr 2020
Love is patient, love is kind
love is pain, just in disguise.
