Angela


You can close your heart from the one that loves you with your lies. You don't notice what I can't verbalize. I tell you through my eyes the way I looked at you before, Our faces were close but my words were kept away. This feeling I had, you see, I could not express to thee. Like Romeo and Juliet I played Russian roulette but I was the one shot down. My words they twisted and turned but I got burned. It was you to blame. These words are so lame, I'm just going to stop, you were my weakness, My law I always broke. Now I'm done, just shun me from your heart. I'll get over this one day and this is my start.
