Shards

by Some Random Human   Mar 5, 2018


Now I understand your underhand, your lies I will not take,
used to feel you, is it still you, 'cause I'm feeling that you're fake,
are you listening, 'cause you're missing, and I cannot find your face,
are you hearing me, or fearing me, while falling from your grace,
well, I'm hopin' that you're open, but I'm broken deep inside,
and there's somethin' that's inside of me that I just cannot hide,
but I don't want this pain, no, I don't want this pride,

It's deep inside of my mind that I find that I'm,
such a mess,
my heart from the start torn apart sends these shards,
right through my chest,

Nevermind your indecision, my decision's getting clear,
keep in mind all my intentions, when I mention this my dear,
I am tired of your reasons, and the treasons that you bring,
now I'm learning all my lessons, these confessions that I sing,
still, I'm hopin' that you're open, but I'm broken deep inside,
and these things that lurk inside of me, I just can't stand to hide,
'cause I don't want this pain, no, I don't want this pride,

It's deep inside of my mind that I find that I'm,
such a mess,
my heart from the start torn apart sends these shards,
right through my chest,

It's deep inside of my mind that I find that I'm,
such a mess,
my heart from the start torn apart sends these shards,
right through my chest,

Now I understand your underhand, your lies I will not hear,
nevermind your indecision, my decision's getting clear,
are you listening, 'cause you're missing, and it does not mean a thing,
now I've learned all of my lessons, these confessions that I sing,
still, I'm hopin' that you're open, but I'm broken deep inside,
and those things that lurked inside of me, no longer do I hide,
'cause I'm done with this pain, yes, I'm done with this pride...

    I agree with Em ... the form is very lyrical with the repetitions. This bitter tale of someone at the end of their tether, while sad, is very relatable and enjoyable to read. :-) x
