I’m holding onto something

That just wished real

That just isn’t there

And it’s beginning to destroy me

Destroying my emotions

Destroying my heart

My feelings are real

They are true

But you don’t feel it

I’m reaching out to you

Trying hard to hold on

But you just aren’t there

You destroyed my hope and love

My hope faded, love gone

My feelings locked away

You murdered my heart

I can’t feel

I can’t love

You’ve done all this to me

And all you had to say:

“We’re better off as friends.”

I pretend that I’m fine

I reply with my smile:

“Don’t worry ‘bout it.”

My feelings scream

Scream to be free

Scream for me to cry

I just push them away

Push them deeper

And lock them away

I turn away

As a single tear falls

As I feel myself go hollow

I walk away

Hoping you don’t see the sorrow

The sorrow in my eyes.
