Please Listen to Me.

Please listen to me; I need to tell you all that’s buried deep inside, which no one else can see. All the pain that lies under this mask that I can no longer hide…
You are the worst thing for me, and even though I know it’s best to forget the past, I still can't set my heart free. For some reason I need this love to last.
Why would you say that I was the one you wanted to keep? Why would you pretend to care about me enough to cry? Don't you know that I've always been in too deep? Don’t you know that you tricked me into thinking that without you, I couldn’t survive?
I sound like all the rest -foolish, young, and completely naïve. You took my innocence, and you treated me as if every move was a test to see how far you could push me until I would leave.
Tell me that it’s worth it, because I don’t want to give up on you. Not only were you the candle that helped create a world that was completely lit, but you were the one whose thoughts I always knew. We were one of a kind, and it’s not fair to let you walk away completely blind.
So please, just give me one second of your time. To me, love now seems like a deadly sin, but I still need to know how you feel, straight from your heart to mine. Take your time, and take my time. I’ll be here waiting, wishing, wanting and praying for you to mend my heart again.
