Martyr Of Love (COMPLETED)

I gave up words

To hear my name

The way it sounds from your lips

But they never came

I gave up tears

To hear you speak

Sweet sounds of comfort

But you’re building walls, brick by brick

I gave up thoughts

To know your side

Why you’re breaking my heart

Each time that I tried

I gave up my will

Only to feel myself fall

From this cliff of romance

Thinking you’d catch me

But you’re nowhere near at all

So I may have given up

The essence of my soul

To someone who’s not worth

Falling to pieces, I’m no longer whole

What are the chances?

Promises, I’ve had enough

Teach me to love myself first

Before someone else “loves”
