KIlling Me Slowly


Scary winds, so rough and so strong Emptiness, that feels so wrong Loneliness, dragged on for too long My warm heart, once full of love and light Was torn away from me one starry night Trapped, emotional, and blind I can no longer shed a tear Hope once wished for deep inside Knowing you loved me filled me with joy and pride But that very night my heart died you made me despise the words I wished to hear A rope Is tied to my heart As it slowly tears me apart you stabbed me with your deadly dart Now I only dream to smile and cheer But you took that away It's when you said you no longer loved me I had to lie and say " it's okay!" I told myself "let him go live his way!" I really really hated that day I feel like I'm about to cry You stole my heart, my soul, my pride Now I realize that day my old self died Squashed like a bug But thank god you're out of my life Though the memories poke at my brain like a knife I really could use a hug.
