Fallen Angel


Sitting here alone all I can recall is you But I guess before I came here I already knew the hearts yearning for you only grew I can still feel the connection Which I showed through devotion And gave through affection Consuming your love like a potion Afraid to alone I looked for comfort anywhere Trying to forget I care But all that happens is my will impairs And lm left with this hurt I can't bear You affected me so much Begging me to look for any touch Looking for a glimpse for your clutch I felt trapped taking one step forward and two steps back and not an ice pack can't help with you being the only thing I lack You lured me in like a picador I followed as a prisoner Prisoned by your attraction Trying desperately to give you satisfaction Looking for any type of reaction But you had already had your heart set on another person And with every passing moment my pain got worsened I stood defeated with my energy depleted and my love story being uncompleted Laying on your doorstep Like a fly Tangled in a spiders web With everything stripped leaving me feeling naked with everything you dictated Not caring for myself but you Only bearing the pain for you Sparing my dignity for you Are you the cruel one or am I the stupid one with all the lies I spun Convincing myself you were the one Hoping we could rerun Not turning back to the razor blade Just hoping for someone's aid Trying not to turn into Cain But who do I blame What is the end with you as a friend is something my heart can't comprehend but my mind knows it is the best option when my attention became extortion and talking to you became a caution
