[bodytext] => I can hear your heart beating frantically As you wait for my magical words And courage flies past the space between us Like a carefree bird You’re waiting for me to speak But my mouth has dried up, like you and I In fast speed I play you walking out the door And me dropping to the floor to cry Replaying your bitter words over in my head You’d rather run away from me, I’d rather be dead I can hear the drum roll as a tear slides down my cheek And I feel you losing hope in everything we made I know that you’ll want to forget about everything But the thought of you not here makes me afraid You make it seem as though you’re the only one in pain And that maybe I’m hurting just to hurt you And that sometimes you wish I’d never been born To be the cause of agony you are constantly put through Replaying your hurtful words, over again You’d rather run away from me than dwell in your own ***** selfish pain I can feel you drifting away, as you slip into your coat And hear you stamp down the stairs, stamping on my heart Your logic to me is trash; you seem to think you should go Thinking we hurt when we’re a family, but we won’t if we’re apart Replaying your heart breaking words, stabbing me like knives Slashing at our family as you walk out of our lives I’m trapped in confusion, unsure of what you meant As you disown me and treat me with disappointment and shame And so you drag out the death of this family By placing your ***** words behind turning everything the same Replaying your broken words, as you walk back through the door Pretending nothing happened, only I’m not your little girl anymore [comments] => 2 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 65 [informant] => carmen_queasy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => toughstuff )
