Gone
you're gone
you're not coming back
it's not that you won't
I'm sure that you will
but I'm not going to take you
into my life
of carefree confidence
fun and free will
so that you
can drag me to ruins.
Gone
you're gone
you're not coming back
to fill my days
with salty tears
to hide away
within my fears
the visions I had
of us together
they're gone, too
forever.
Gone
you're gone
you're not coming back
for another attempt
to melt the ice,
the smooth, polished ice
that keeps me safe
from those like you
who only wish
to break my heart,
my frozen heart.
Gone
you're gone
you're not coming back
to pain my conscience
with confessions of love.
The one thing
that brings me to my knees,
that look in your eyes,
the way you speak
you irrevocably mean
every word.
Gone
you're gone
you're not coming back
because I drove you away
with my constant rejection.
My dead heart
broke your fragile one
and for that
I am so sorry
but no tears will come.
Gone
you're gone
you're not coming back
you think that you've lost
but I know I'm defeated
you awakened my emotions
brought happiness and love
to counter hate and anger
my mind is a whirl
the world is a blurr
and, for once,
I'm completely unsure.
