Sharing Our Innermost Thoughts

If only you knew what I’ve been through
You wouldn’t be so cruel
Your hate would fade
My light would shine to your embrace

I assumed we were friends
But you plunged a knife in my chest
My blood stained shirt forgotten
Your eyes so dark and cold

You never saw my pain
I guess that’s my fault
I never really let you in
I probably should have

How would you fair in my shoes
You’d be no better than me
A hollowed out shell
You’d have no purpose

The light would leave your eyes
You’d be completely broken
Drowning in the deep
You’ll need a lifeline

I thought you might be mine
But you push me under
The water in my nose
But do you even know
