See it on my arms

by Caroline   Oct 31, 2009


It's such a scary thing,
when love actually causes harm.
You can't see the scar on my heart,
But you can see them on my arms.

You were the perfect man,
So I must have messed up somewhere.
You used to say you loved me more then anything,
Now it feels like you never really did care.

Theirs a no return policy on love,
No matter how quickly it seems to fall apart.
And to make matters worse,
Theirs a no return policy on a broken heart.

Every time I think of you,
And those eyes that twinkle like the stars.
It only reminds me of what I lost,
And opens up old scars.

Now I'm just trying to survive,
Trying not drown in my own tears.
They seemed to have washed away all my defenses,
Only leaving fears...

Because its such a scary thing,
when love actually causes harm.
You cant see the pain bleeding from my heart...
but you can see it in my arms.
