You thought you gave me your all
with all your worldly deeds,
But the truth is, you scare me,
to love you is to hold you while you sleep
But as you can see that isn't apart of me,
Between your heart and mine
we both are from a different time,
where dreams sprang from shallow seas,
where tears fall like raindrops,
Just us being around each other
brings on more pain;
I do remember the leaves in green and suns in gold,
where the heart of mine turned to pulsate ripe and red,
I once felt so alive with true love on my side
Until you became my husband and I, your wife,
I once thought I may have been blessed
until you started to change as soon as we wed,
I have seen the darkness in your eyes for the first time,
You said all the right words
to keep me confused about you,
then you started beating me down...
I felt I wasn't able to get back up,
We made our arrangements
to look perfect around friends,
we proceeded to act as we are so in love,
people even wanted to be us,
I never truly understood the fuse
because they weren't missing much,
we made choices, and so many I truly regret
I just wish we had never met,
The truth is I never wanted to look down on no one,
But when it comes to you, it is very hard not to!
you love to abuse and use,
I truly am glad I am away from you.
