Crossed

Crossed over once again

Left behind then again

Nothing less expected,

This is why I leave protected.

Why my heart is black and burned,

Where I can't be touched, where I've returned

The truth was not told, the truth was damaging cold

Your move was pretty fucking bold.

Perhaps thought less pain would fall,

But really released upon was it all

Instead left straight forward and real,

Left to be angry and dead to feel

You crossed me when you could've just said,

"I don't want to talk anymore. This is dead."

But instead of being honest and everything clear,

Had to lie and ignore just to ignite my fear

Lied to and crossed by everyone I've been close

But I guess this is just how it goes

This all could've have easily been fixed

All just to be twisted and you to play tricks

Left grudged and crossed

Fake, just like the rest were tossed

In the end, I could've been so good and true

I could have been in your hair with the wind that blew

But instead you'll be ignored and played by someone else,

While you did that to someone,

To me.

I could've given you the world

Beyond this deathly twirl

Instead I'll have faith on my own

And you'll be all alone.
