Last Time by StephenP(m): 6:26pm On Nov 24, 2008 |
For the last time I felt rage, Anger in its purest form, Untainted by the scent of her perfume, the touch of her skin, Or by the love tucked deep in my heart for emergencies like this, For moments where she gets me so pissed. When clenched fists and deep breaths aren’t enough to soothe the soul You burned me baby Turning my love into coal I stare into her eyes And see nothing left I want to give her what she deserves So I turn stealth My mission is to mirror her actions An eye for an eye A heart for a heart I have loved you for the last time No longer longing to rewind back to the start Freed by the recklessness of your selfish mind Once upon a time I was jailed in the thoughts of losing you Imprisoned to my vision of our happily ever after I was so sure Sure that the bridge of trials would be crossed by us And our dreams would come true Our love would reach peaks with love filled creeks A meadow for us to lay and bask in each others' presence even after we turn gray I was so sure You would be the one I would risk it all for So sure your smile was worth fighting for Yet shut doors can’t be opened without a key And I can’t pick the locks because it mocks my integrity I watched you change back to the life you swore you left behind Pleading to know my crime Did I love you too much? Was my loyalty not enough? Has my affection been redirected as lust? When you feel the haunting chill of loneliness surround you as you stare at your empty bed Remember what I’ve said I loved you more than you deserved though I was never your priority Now I see past your pain, I see the character of a girl yearning to be a woman again If only you would learn humility, then maybe you could see That love is hard to find in this world, but I came to you wholeheartedly In due time you will receive an awakening of all senses An epiphany A moment in which you will regret the day you consciously chose to hurt me [img]http://pro.corbis.com/images/42-19618496.jpg?size=572&uid={0643cf9a-1cd6-4d41-b052-cbf0dcb91f45}[/img] |
