Can You See?

by Samey   Jul 8, 2006


The screams shatter a house no longer whole,
The picture of what we once had has smashed,
And all the pieces have faded and blurred to an ugly image,
No longer smiling but angry and yelling,
Can you hear my shrieks of pain?

Sitting in the corner crying until theres nothing left,
Running from the one place that should be called home,
No matter how far I go its never far enough,
Theres no escaping the images of flying objects and pointed fingers,
Can you see me pushing you away?

Accept the blame, you both caused this in the end,
Cant find shelter under the lies,
They pull at open wounds and sting my soul,
The silence hits like a knife to the back,
Bleeding for what once was,
Can you hear me, I need you,

Need to feel love in this hate filled house,
But all I get is pushed aside while the hate rages on,
The very walls of my existence are crumbling around me,
With every fight a piece of me is gone,
I'm shutting myself away from the world,
Can you see me slamming you out?

In one last battle its all over with me stuck in the middle,
Ive done all I can for you, but it wasn't enough,
I was locked out while the war raged on in my heart,
Now beaten and broken I see you clearly,
But the real question is,
Can you see what you've done to me?
