Opened the Wound

So much to say but nothing comes out, One minute you’re in my arms and the next I am filled with doubt, So much to tell you but nothing will do, I gave you my heart and you weren’t true, Older does not mean wiser, And time just makes one forget, How selfish ambitions were how we once met, Dreams are just dreams when it’s one-sided my dear friend, Your words turned to poison when you betrayed me again, Forever is a long time and you can’t even handle the now, So why complicate me with those intimate vows, Love is an action not just a feeling, You have no idea what it’s like when someone is still healing, Jump from one bed into another, I can’t clean up your mess as if I were your mother, You bailed once before when you didn’t understand How foolish of me to think you wouldn’t do it again, Time keeps on flying for it stands still for no one, You dance with an angel but kill with a gun Closure can come just on one’s own, It’s called closing the door and allowing the cut to be sown, So stitch me up once again, For I allowed myself to open what was meant to end, Bandage me oh so tight, To stop this pain tonight, For I know when a heart breaks it never mends right, It never mends right It never mends right.
