Why don't you listen

by confusion   Nov 9, 2004


I want you
too much to explain
how you ignore me
puts me through so much pain

i need you
here by my side
side covered in scars
everyday i hide

scars you have seen
once tried to help me heal
but now you don't care
what i do and how i feel

i remember so clearly
those nights you took the time
to listen to my problems
it felt like you were mine

i remember that day
when you held me tight
made me promise to stop cutting
you'd help me through the fight

i remember without doubt
your face filled with concern
and how i tried so hard
not to cut though i did yearn

all of this for you
how i believed you cared
but all of this was a game
out love was never shared

you lied through your teeth
then let me fall right down
upon the harsh cold earth
with nothing but a frown

i know your not truthful
or perfect in anyway
you've hurt me more than anyone
but still i think of you each day

my mind and my heart
are filled with memories
how special you made me feel
when you were here with me

but you never really were
and it's killed me inside
no longer keep that promise to you
now you've taken all my pride
