    My bruised heart is bursting
    with just so much to say,
    But will revealing the truth
    just turn you away?

    I long to tell you
    how you reached to my heart,
    through all of my walls
    that were there from start.
    I long to tell you
    how I believed every word,
    and then became blinded
    to all else that I heard.

    You calmed all my doubts,
    reassured every fear,
    And finally your presence
    I began to hold dear.

    I finally gave in
    and gave you that chance,
    Only to realize
    you’d soon change your stance.

    It was never enough,
    time flew too fast.
    For now it is only
    a dream of the past.

    You say we’re ok,
    after all we’ve been through.
    But I can’t help but feel
    as though I’ve lost you.

    I held not a care
    but for the friendship we’d share.
    Yet now I can see
    when I look in your face,
    You have another
    who has taken my place.

    So go on back to her
    since you’re still in that hold.
    I’ll stand here – at a distance
    accepting this cold.

    And so written here
    with this book hid away,
    Are some of the things
    to you I’ll can’t say,
    For revealing the truth
    will just turn you away.
