Break Up


That life alrtering

heart shattering

body shaking

head aching

words spurring

hatred

your whole world's crumbling down

and you just can't take it 

that love that you thought

would live forever 

dying right before your eyes 

but you're trying to hold on so hard

cause how can you say goodbye?

how did you gather up the strength

to say we just can't be

when I couldn't leave 

even when you were hurting me...

we both made mistakes

but please don't go away

at least not today...
