Broken

As they began to distance apart
A thousand arrows began to hit her heart
It felt as though each one had poison inside
Oh how much she wanted to cry

She thought that he loved her too
But when he said he didn't
There was only one thing that she wanted to do

Hide
Hide in this sorrow
Hide in this pain
Hide until this hurt wouldn't gain

She could only wish for everything to go away
But as it didn't
More misery came with every living day

In her dreams was where every wish came true
Even though it was filled with lies
It was what made her come through

Now she pretends to be happy
But in actual reality,
She has so many fears
Though she still hopes that he still cares
She knows that he will never love her
In the way in which she has always loved him
