Silently Dying
Your words are
Daggers, slashing
Through my walls
All the way to this crashing,
Weak heart
Wounds open where you cut
But over time they
Become scars and shut
‘Till only traces tell of our decay
Your silence is
A machine gun
Or maybe a nuclear bomb?
Your silence is
A direct crit hit
It strikes once and kills
Yet you always
Pull me back from the brink
Like you can‘t part ways
Though you attack without a blink
Is it that you need me,
The reason you can‘t set me free?
The problem is that I too
Cannot live without you
I don‘t have the courage to say
Let‘s bid farewell,
End this cruel play
Guess we‘ll be together even in hell
Do you believe
This cold war can end?
If you could please
Stop this pretense
What keeps me here
In this place full of despair
Is a fear
Of being beyond repair
The me you destroyed,
The heart you tore to pieces
And patched back together
As you realized I was bleeding
It‘s so ugly now
That even I abhor to look at it
It‘s so unrecognizable
That even I don‘t know who it is
Could you tell me honestly
If this is really me?
Could you cease your silence
And make numb my senses?
Could you please just
Make me feel
Like I am whole
And help me
Fill this hole
Left empty
By your
Words
