Saying goodbye

by Johnnie   Sep 25, 2007


Your smile and your stupid laugh
the face you make when you are sleeping
your singing voice in my ear
the way I felt so at ease and safe..
all the wonder
all the comfort
all the love... gone
as you slowly pulled yourself away
while for the first time I held on
all my strength poured into keeping you....
wasted
with your cheap excuse and 'let's be friends'
I am alone again
and all the walls that crumpled to let you in..
they rise again
as my heart feels the pain of its mistake
a small child burned by the flame
I was naive to believe... in trust.. in happiness.. in love
back to the wall
back to the safety of solitude
I can stop myself from making the same mistake twice
and I can learn to never trust again
but nothing can remove your smile from my memory
and nothing can erase the love that is deep inside
your smile and stupid laugh surround me now...
