Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Everything you said never meant a thing
You only told me things i wanted to hear
My heart is now broken in a sling
And everything about you now becomes clear

You used to make me laugh
But now are the reason for every tear i shed
Now looking at your photograph
My heart feels like it is hanging by a thread 

You never hold my hand
Nor look me in the eye
Now i feel as if I'm in quicksand 
I think it's time to say goodbye

You say you love me but is that true
Do you dare tell me the truth 
Looking at you now you start to look blue
Why did you have to waste my youth 

Actions speak louder than words
Show me how you care
My heart is now in thirds
So goodbye my dear

I can feel your despair, for I am a sensitive guy. You have a way with words. I wish you well in all you do.
