Say You Love Me

When you left without a trace

I was tragically alone in every way

I laid in bed from dawn til dusk

Thinking of how I had to make a choice

I could either drown in the pain and give up

Or accept the reality and start over again

Even if it meant I had to crawl on the floors

And hold on to the wall just so I could stand

Even if it felt like all the life had drained out of me

And there was no more strength left in the reserves of my heart

I often wondered if you did that to me

Or if I did it to myself when I chose to let you in?

Either way, I knew no one was coming to save me

And I could let all of my light fade

Or rage against the darkness you gave me

To be continued…
