Hurt

I wanted to believe you loved me so I held it to my heart.

I grasp the thought so tightly that it tore my pride apart.

I ignored all my warnings and even those that made me cry.

Until my tears became so painful that it burned me up inside.

How could I've been so stupid to entrust your every lie.

And when I couldn't face the drama I just held the pain inside.

Until it became to dramatic and my heart became afraid.

So I came to all my senses and I finally began to pray.

God gave me all the strength I need to say that this won't work.

And maybe we should turn away before we both get hurt.
