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.
