The Love Went Away

There's no easy way to accept... When the love goes away All these years Leading up to the day... When you finally walked away Hidden behind the smile Of someone who used to love you Once a happy child Now the tormented Trusted... Gave in... Time and time again Hoping... Begging... You would find a way back in But chance after chance You blew me away With your incapacity to say Angry, sad, disappointed, betrayed? I'll never know unless you say But time is growing short, You see I've got a plan To find my peace Little did you know What a mark you could leave On a tortured child's soul Burning... Bleeding... Tearing deep No way back To yesterday To a time when innocence believed There was no such thing as a wicked witch ... And surely you could never be Yet on this day I smile to you Hiding the sad, sad truth Tormented can only be for so long Time enough will teach the soul There's no way back to yesterday To a time when I believed No way forward From this place... Where brick walls crumble And I die within the rubble ~~____________________________________~~ This is the story of a young girl who killed herself because the one person she thought truly loved her turned his back on her; suddenly acted as though he hated her, and she couldn't understand why... This is a fictional depiction of a very possible reality. Thanks for reading ~ Mistylove
