The "L" word

by Bexx   Mar 1, 2006


Suddenly
in the mist of
the greyest day
the coldest my heart has been
in so long
you
appear hoping
to get back in
to the place you used to be
finally saying the word
I always wanted you to say to me
I can't bear to hear it now
it burns my ears
while my eyes fill
with the tears I've been
holding back for so many years
I can't even bear to say it
I can't make myself repeat
the lie you just told
If I could I would take this back
this whole
"secret love"
If I could I would have never
felt like this
I would have never wished
I would have said that word
And now that it's over
you come back
stating that you feel it
and you know I still do
but you seemed not to care
when I walked away
you seemed not to care
when I cried
so how could you just
drop the "L" word like that
as though you
"love" me
