Heart don’t live here no more


This heart of mine
Has been hardened like the bedrock
At the bottom of the sea
Filled with shadows
And dark figures
Of a love slayed.
Haunted by dreams;
Black and ominous

Once again,
Left in silence
You gave up the fight.
Like a coward
You ran for the hills
Leaving me behind
To hold onto our dreams…
Alone
Scared
Angry
  
I knew we were destined to go wrong
All the signs were there
While I I looked for a connection;
You looked for the great escape
It mattered to you not
How you made my heart race
I cried. I hated. I loved.
I cried again.
And loved again

Even our pent up animosity led to sparks
You saved my heart
I saved you a precious corner
But love don’t live here no more
The reason for time;
Is so everything doesn’t happen at once
We made memories everyday
I play them in my mind, one at a time
I'm betting on time as a healer
Where cupid failed;
And fate cashed in
I will rewrite the script
