What you hold...

by Ashley   May 22, 2006


A lonely soul
Searching, but not finding.
A loveless girl
On this road unwinding.

Can't seem to find
The happiness needed.
For some sort of solution
Many times, I have pleaded.

A heart unwanted,
It's been given and broken.
Now I stand with the pieces,
Why don't you want this token?

A simple smile
Covers the sadness within.
It's been getting harder by the day
To hold onto this grin.

A single tear forms
In the corner of my eye.
There will be many more to come,
One for each and every lie.

Alone today.
Unwanted forever.
You don't want me,
Not now, not ever.

I don't understand
Why I'm still hanging on.
I can't look past what I felt,
And I forget the fact that you're gone.

I only wish that I were stronger.
If only I hadn't done what I did...
If only my heart listened to my head that night,
If only I actually ran and hid.

I let temptation take over.
I let my heart get torn apart.
If only I'd been more careful
About to whom I gave my heart.

I've tried to put the pieces together
Only to realize you still own a large piece.
You took my heart with you, wherever you went.
But my head is begging for my love for you to cease.

I know that this isn't over,
As much as I'd like it to be.
I know you'll be back, because
Along with my heart, you also hold the key.
