Rip
Reprieve
Repeat
The three R's are what you follow
Pursuing mindless pity and empathy for everyone else's sake.
But yet, why not mine?
Do you not know how much you hurt me?
Every step of ignorance tearing my heart inch by inch,
And you do not know how minuscule that particular object is
I've tried talking to you
Heard, not listened
I smile at you
Eyes blinded by illiteracy
I run away, a pang of sorrow in my heart
Running the wrong way
Has the taste of my faithfulness left you drugged?
Believing the very fact that I will never leave your side?
That very trust is hanging by a single thread,
but you continue to abuse that fragile line
Did you know,
That every time I see your face,
A feeling of longing overcomes me?
Of all the gazes I've thrown at you,
Death glares,
Sorrowful glances,
and pleading looks,
every which of the likes ignored by you
Never look my way, as you continue to feel oblivious to my own tears
Rip
Reprieve
Repeat
Please stop it
You've taught me my lesson the hard way
Love is dangerous, and I won't fall in love again
Even though I've never even asked for the moral of a love story
I've learned that you can't tape a heart back together, no matter how much glue you use
The pain of you ignoring me broke it even more, making the pieces even harder to find
But I hope it stays that way
Because if I ever
See your your face in any emotion
Touch your skin that is ever so soft
Or hear your musical laugh
I think I'll die
