Friends aren't who I thought they were.
Lies, deception, betrayal, hurt, pain.....
We both felt these
But in your eyes

You were the victim.

I have walked the same path,

Opened the same doors,

Ignored the same leaders,

Spent time with the same people

Yet, the people have changed.

I have changed.

You are the same.

 

When you see me

I will still say hello.

When you frown

I will smile.

When you bow your head

I will raise mine.

It's not because I care,

It's because I'm open to growth.

 

You don't cry because of how much I've
"Hurt you",

You don't bleed because I've
"Wounded you",

You cry because you need to feel needed

And you bleed because you don't know

How to heal it.

 

You're not perfect

And just the simple concept of knowing is

Killing you

Slowly.

 

She sits there

   hoping this time

      it'll be different.

She dreams

   that when she wakes up,

      the bruises will fade.

She believes

   the lies he tells her

      because she refuses to seek truth.

She knows

   deep down nothing

      will change but...

She can't

   stop the hurt

      for now she's his personal

Rag Doll.

 

 

I love it when you smile,

I love it when you cry,

I love it when you breathe,

I'll love you when you die.
