Just Words

Such a smile to fool the world
Underneath it all
in the depths you hide
The pain, stained from so many years
Snuffing away the love
the light inside

All I had wasn't strong enough to remain
I held you and you cut me all the same
Bleeding out heart and soul
All I am flooding the floor
In awe
and shock
there was nothing left anymore

I smell your perfume
and feel your presence
Still on somedays
My scars speak to remind me
I need to love you
to free myself
to walk away
