Wrapped in your Words

I wrapped myself
With your words
� Just the ones you told me
In the beginning of our relationship.

The thing is:
Our relationship ended
And I�m still clutching them
Like a serpent�s clamps on its prey.

But after we broke up,
I took the devil�s dictionary
And called every word that fit you;
While, mentally I threw darts at your face.

At that moment, I felt better
But then, your words raced back to my side
And unconsciously, I held them.

I tried letting them go
Like I let the hurt you caused leave
But like I haven�t forgot about it
I haven�t forgotten about your words.

As I thought about our passed,
I wandered what changed:
How someone so different
Became so similar to a previous ex.

I didn�t know what happened
And I still don�t know.
I tried to find out but I gave up long ago.

But I still find myself blanketed
By your words �replaying them like my favorite song�
Wandering if I ever will hear them again
And they actually become true unlike last time.

So will you place the cover on me
And wrap me in your words again?
