You took my heart
And made it brand new
You pieced it back together
So I gave it to you
You promised to keep it
To hold it, to care
You promised to love me
To always be there
So why am I crying
And holding the pieces again
Of my heart that you broke
And filled up with pain
I loved you with
Everything that I had
So why are punishing me
By making me sad
You were my world
That is now taken away
There's no point in trying
Because you're not going to stay
I'll turn my head
And close my eyes
I'll cover my ears
As you say, "Good-bye"
I don't want to believe this
It can't all be true
You couldn't have just said
"I'm not in love with you"
I'm sorry I'm shaking
I just cannot be strong
Because you're leaving right now
And I know I can't come along
I stand cold as ice
When you walk right by me
Towards the open door
As you whisper, "I'm sorry"
The door closes behind you
As I collapse to the floor
Pain closes in around me
Making my whole body sore
"Why?" I scream out loudly
"Why does this always happen to me?"
I have become trapped again
After finally being set free
I hate myself for falling
For you and all your lies
I'm tired of falling asleep
With tearful, burning eyes
I think about you one last time
As I take one more deep breath
I really thought you were different
But now I know you're just like the rest
Thanks for reading my work. I appreciate any comments or critiques.
