Magic Word

by TheMask   Oct 24, 2015


You love me
You love me not
You said you did
You showed you did
You proved you did

But one magic word
Changes the game altogether
I thought I won
I thought I gained my prize
I thought I had the person I loved

Then one word flips everything in this race
This marathons ending line changed
Now both me and him are at the same place
I got here through hard work
He took a short cut
One with minimal effort

I love you
Love you so much
But everyday it gets harder

You've made me run through a jungle, dessert, mountains
Finally I thought I was done
Now you say run through hell
Face my worse nightmares

All for what
Your love, your undivided attention
I gave you everything my love, my time, my whole being
I left it out
In trust

But I know the secret now
The lovers secret is out
And yet you continue to lie
Everyday you make this harder
I don't know anymore
Should I have trusted you
Should I continue too
Should I just stop

I never knew one word should, could, would change this game
I'm tired of running this marathon for you
Please just run towards me
Before the flame inside goes out
