Dead-Love!

Those said words 
hurt so much 
like swords 
sharp to the touch 

Complication set in 
all of this hard 
like swallowing straight gin 
falling down like a house of cards 

Why say them when u know 
it only makes it worse 
words still there 
now my heart feels cursed 

Heart is in pain 
eyes full of tears 
numbness took over my Brain 
I can't sense my fears 

What a waste 
I'm in despair 
your lips won't be mine to taste 
your touch won't be there 

Eyes are cold 
as the arctic air 
my heart no longer bold 
love no longer lives there 

Those words you won't say 
eats me alive 
no escaping to get away 
no way for love to survive
