Random Bits of my Brain

Heartache

When You Walked Out

When you walked out & slammed the door

You told me to stay, not to talk anymore

I thought I was strong, 'til that moment in time

When I found that your words were so very unkind

You told me I'd never be what you want

But, how can that be so when you don't know what I've got?

I can offer so much more to you

More than you'd ever ask me to

You don't know my heart or how vast it is

What it sounds like or how I love to give 

You'll never know what it feels like

To put me to bed & to kiss me goodnight

You shut yourself down & I do not know why

You predicted me out of your future so bright

There's a light within us we each contain

I am a jack o'lantern & you are my flame

I'll obey your wishes, I'll stay just a friend

But, don't you dare come crying to me when

You find no one's love who matches mine

& you want to invite the clock to unwind

It's too late now, what's done is done

I'll remain as your sister, I'll play my part

& if in time you find things do change

I can't promise you that on my knees I'll wait

What prayers can't sustain 

Good vibes can't smooth over

I'll suffer through alone

As I grow older & older

I won't cry

I won't beg

It'll hurt but

I won't fight

I'll just go on pretending everything is alright

Two Halves = Complete

Are you really in love if it's only felt by you?

Maybe it's just addiction if it isn't felt by two

Can you have a head-on collision

on a one-way street?

Without two halves together

a heart can't be complete

It takes two to make a pair

But, the feelings must be shared
