How can you say that?!
Saying it so casually,
I feel the need to hide away,
afraid to believe something that is a lie.
You say its the truth, how can I believe you?
You ask why I don't believe,
I ask why you say such a lie.
You don't believe its a lie, give it time.
Time reveals the truth!
The truth doesn't hurt,
IT KILLS!!!
How can I embrace this lie that will change me from the inside out.
How can I allow this statement to open me up to joy,
I've endured much, but I will never be able to endure this truth!
"I love you," echos through my head.
The world around me fades away, Do I dare to believe this.
How can I embrace the need that was silent until now.
Urgent, and undeniable for me to understand.
Tears fall, I cannot say if they were joyful or from a broken child.
This world lies, lies about your soul,
your heart,
How can I trust this feeling.
This phrase that changed history.
Loving and leaving, it floats across my eyelids as I sleep.
How can I do this?
Now? Now will not continue, my head says.
But my heart beats for the first time in centuries,
and flutters to life in an agonizing cycle I fear will end.
This invasion of my heart and soul,
fractured into bits to make room for the piece you give,
I cant stop from giving a piece of me to you!
If I could I would, knowing this wont last, knowing what will happen,
knowing the remains of this war within,
will destroy everything on the outside.
