Can you hear my heart breaking?
It's because of you.
Can you see the eyeliner
smudged in the creases
under my eyes?
It's because of you.
Can you hear my screams of anguish?
My sobs purely of the morose
feeling or remorse?
It's because of you.
Can you taste the tears falling?
The pearly, luscious tears that
are just for you.
They're because of you.
Can you feel the tears
leaving the streaks on my face?
They are the scars that you were hoping you would leave.
And they're because of you.
Can you smell the smoldering of the
ashes of my soul?
When you burned me up with
your harsh words of hate.
It's because of you.
How could you do this,
when I had loved you for so long?
How could you break me,
with all the beauty filled
up inside?
When had I not been
yours?
Yours, I was yours.
But you threw me away,
and bent me too far to
keep on pretending to play.
Can't you see?
It's because of you
that I cry,
that my heart breaks,
that I'm shaking all over,
that I'm finally giving up.
Can you.....
