You smile as you look at me
thus handing me a rose
but nothing's what it used to be
as love and hate oppose
When I look at you I see
all the pain and misery
it bleeds me dry, but still I lie
and say I am happy.
I don't know how a promise concrete
can break like glass, but still
I lock my feelings up, discreet
and probably always will.
I'm hoping it will be the same
once you've forgotten her name
and carry on, your feelings gone
except for just one flame.
For now I sigh, hope's all but lost
the betrayal I feel inside
cannot survive denial's frost
or pull me through the lies you've lied
I slip into these thoughts and drown
as rose petals fall to the ground
How can love's spell, bring me such hell?
I wonder as I make no sound.
