Incomplete

by ninth909   Apr 3, 2005


Do you understand
Those feelings I had
...what I have
I would give my life for you
don't shrug off what's true
understand my strife
when the world acts so cruel
to the point
of taking my soul
They tell you otherwise
I pull you close to tell the truth
still you feel distant

Look me in the eye
and tell me the truth
I poured out my soul
You've killed my confidence
and left me with an
unmistakable desire
to fade away
to escape

The shelter you gave out so willingly
falls away to reveal
my untouched heart
you shoot it down
finish your part
let me heal
I gave my trust to you
and have been exposed
to what I can't comprehend
something new
they say I'll always mend
but the wound always opens
to a new cruelty

the sheltered life I killed
dissolved when I met you
I lived in ecstacy
until the acid burned me away
the reveal my crushed heart
my crushed innocence...
