Only the Heartless

A word you say,
Blew my heart away. . .

The moon can fall and I’d hear your words
A star can shine and I’d see your eyes…

But ever since that lonely day…
A silence can create so many waves…
No matter what you say,
And no matter what you do,
You left and took my heart with you.

A word can mean so many things,
You took my heart like a lying stinge…
You molded my mind into some sort of lie,
Your words would sting and I would cry…
Because a silence can create so many waves,
That only the heartless can simply brave. 

A force that swiped my broken legs,
Can make hearts grow, but slowly bend... 
But as the water grows higher,
My breath becomes tried...

The water reaches my neck,
Once again, a gasp for breath...


A wave can push and a wave can crash,
Like the words to a heart,
But the lies you send and the words you say,
Only the heartless can stand, and only the heartless will brave.
But I have a heart,
And I will never stay.
