You can run but I can't hide you.
You can scar, I can't erase,
Can't wash you from my humming mind
Emblazoned there for all my days.
If I had not have let you in
Not been there for Cupid's spell
Your poison would not have tainted me
Have found a start, a heart to fell.
Oh, to sleep without a dream
Wherein your face should torment me!
'You loved, you lost,' your phantom says
'Now you're the slave and I the freed.'

He was nobody; a boy. He was somebody; to her. Hair clung to her face. Wet cheeks from the rain. Or was it from tears. She loved him so. He healed her heart. To heal her fear. Cost a hefty price.
I used to watch the words flow from your mouth, I used to watch them fade away in the dead space you once called air. I used to breathe you in. Then you decided breathing wasn't an option.
Like the seasons. You come and go. Like the breeze. You soothe with a touch. Like the sun. You shine bright. Like the stars. You lead the way. Like a bee. You soon leave me. For another pretty flower.
What he just said to me, plays back like a broken record. Should I laugh it off, or should I show him that it really did hurt. I smile, but move away. Trying to stay happy, but I can't.
You didn't forget me I've been here all along You think I don't remember you I'm here to prove you wrong Each detail of each night with you Etched detailed in my head And all those things you said...
The days when happiness was no struggle, Head held high with confidence. How have I gotten to where I am now, Shy and insecure with little confidence.
She cried, Silent tears tumbling, She signed, And fell asleep mumbling, He was gone, Just like the others, Not 'the one' she curled up alone under the covers, He cheated, Used her as is she was...
He said goodbye. He told her she'd be better off. He thought time would heal her wounds. He never meant to hurt her. She'd tried so hard. She'd tried to forget him.
