It Was You

It Was You

So many words I cannot say
upon my tongue and lips do play;
A harmony of secrets and lies
within myself; all I despise.
And so I hold my breath a while
to force my heart back into denial.

Hear the melody of my heart breaking;
Every piece of my soul shattered and aching.
And while my lips refuse to sing the words
I hope somehow you’ve really heard

The fleeting song upon the breeze
That dropped me to my tender knees
and will forever echo deep within
I love you now, I loved you then.

So many scars have caged me in;
Escape’s a prize I shall not win
A prisoner of love and war,
I shall never be of little more
Than the empty shell of dreams unknown
and the reaping of the pain I’ve sown.

Amidst the dark where my tears still fall
I accept I’ve only strength enough to crawl
Back into the horror of my own mind
Where nothing can the time unwind,

Or the hurts undo; the trust repair.
I’m right here, but I’m not there.
Caught between reality and dreams
Where love is a vice in the devils schemes.

I loved you always, since the start of it all
and I’ll love you still when down I fall;
With every breath, in every sigh
I’ll hold you close until I die
And in the end when I’m laid to rest,
you will know who it was I loved best.

It was always you... for as long as I can remember... you are not the only one who's heart has broken...
