Tears once ran
Faster than my thoughts
could carry my feet
Memories took arms with
what has come to pass
Half truth is still
part of a whole lie
Refusal to heal what
hurt you in the past
Will only cause you to
bleed onto those who did not cut you in the present
Until enough is enough
Making it to far gone
already
My hands reached out to
give
Your hands only wanted
to take
Words fell short
Until you asked me to
fill the silence you were all to eager to create
Breeding the excuses to
hide the reasons to believe
Questions asked became
the quest traveled
Though nothing could be
done to bridge the distance between us
Love blinds the mind
Allowing toxic things
done ignored
Seemingly to justify
the scares left
Just because the one
loved beyond my own safety
Was holding the knife
Cut from this past
connection now
My words still echo
through
There was always a
place in my heart for you...
Until you turned out
the light.
