to leave you was the hardest thing for me
to do
but i couldn't just stand there
in the puddle of hurt that dripped from
my eyes
i didn't want you to see me like this
though its because of you
that these tears stain the rocky cliffs
i turned away to walk away
but i couldn't get far
my heart flooded down with the barren
weight of sadness
my soul broken, bleeding, desperately
needing your help
but what can you do other than ignore me
since that is how its been lately
were you like this to all the others
before me
or is there something about me that reels
in turmoil
how can i be in love with you when you do
the things you do
i want to run away
but i don't know where to go
no other arms to hold me the way you do
to chase the pain away that seems to be
all caused by you
and every time i try to break free
to get away from your strangling embrace
i am pulled back into this miserable
miserable place
i pray to a god that i don't believe in
to take me away from all of this
and don't let me come back again
but my prayers are silent and so is the
miracles
so i live in the hurt that stings my
heart so violent
each day hoping, praying, wishing
that i had the courage to break free from
you
to leave was the hardest thing
i could never do...
