Broken...

by *fading*away*   May 10, 2006


I got off the bus and there you were
Standing, avoiding my eyes
How could I say
What I held in my heart
I knew we had to part
There was nothing to say,
No words to exchange
I took one swift glance at you
But you had turned away
Your eyes focused on the road
II turned around,
And once again,
We parted as strangers

With each step I took,
My heart was crying out
To turn back,
To tell you what hadn't been said,
To make it all right,
But I knew that you wouldn't care

My heart was breaking,
All the pieces that had been held together
Were falling apart one by one,
My heart was bleeding but I had no choice,
You wouldn't care anyway
You won't understand the truth

I had always thought that
You would be there in the end
That somehow, you would care

If even a grain of our friendship
Was etched in your heart,
If even a single memory of the times
We had shared together
Was replaying in your head,
I guess you would have called after me
And whispered a hello

It had been a few months
Since we saw each other,
A few years after we met
But now it makes no difference
You haven't come to your senses
You still don't care

I never ever believed that
I could see you one last time

Because fate, I thought,
Had other plans for both of us

Time heals all wounds,
Or so they say,
Well they are wrong
Because this wound hasn\'t healed
Each time I want to believe that I'm fine
There you appear, blotting out my beliefs
