Mourning Skies

Relapse

I wish you could learn to love

Without leaving a bruise.

I want to tell someone

I'm the one you abuse.

But when I see your broken heart

I wonder if I'm just your release.

So I'll cover the cuts and scars

Until they cease.

But that one day you said

"Don't tell a soul"

I began to notice

The light that you stole.

When I didn't return

You begged and you cried.

So the day I returned

Was the day that I died.
