Love slowly withering away
Lush feelings melt to sorrow
You've turned a peaceful mind
Into a state of melancholy
My once chatty brain has fallen silent
For fear of rejection once more
I have a confession;
You hurt me
Words you've spoken
Seem to penetrate my heart
More swiftly then a loaded pistol
Making me become more frail
And all too synthetic
Yes, synthetic
Merely a shell of my once euphoric self
Which remains obsolete
Your cruelty pulled a trigger in my head
And left me with nothing but regrets
I wont live long enough to see the aurora of tomorrow
