In Gratitude

In gratitude Crying tears of blood Pain flowing down the cheeks Broken hearted To you I am sorry Your reasons unknown Wishing we had talked A simple reason enough Left with the shadow of doubt No longer close Hidden within you A secret Slowly bleeding the heart dry None more cruel Than silence The easy way out Bring me back to love Years of life lie wasted This wall created a summit All the emotion a man possessed Buried beneath the stones I tried to climb A secret so dark In the end turning cold Without even a heart You put the poker deep in the chest Hurting so deep As I bury myself Like a river it bleeds in hurt No easy way out Honesty Would have found me Instead you lied so many times Taking back my heart in gratitude Shattered In a million pieces With only myself Left to pick up What's left It was then the pain ended, wasted years for what
