My heart pounding
Bursting with emotion
Looking him in the face
I opened my mouth.

Will I ever learn?
Why do I put myself,
Through such torment?
I’m alone here again.

Every time I fall its,
History repeating itself.
My life and rejection,
Are forever entwined.

I saw it coming, felt it.
Jaw tighten, eyes cold,
My familiar old ache’s back.
Why did I open my mouth?

Like that, snap of fingers
He’s gone, out of my life.
I lost him, our friendship,
When I opened my mouth.

Now I’ve learned
The difference between
Dreams and reality
Life’s taught me that.

So I’ll bear the pain
And bury my feelings
For never again will
I open my mouth.

Tho, in my dreams
I don’t get the chance
Fingers caressing skin,
His lips cover mine.
