With Every Cut

With every cut, my heart bleeds red, as dying dreams drown in my blood. For from each lie, sadness is bled, dripping excruciating pain. Betrayal has opened a vein, and anxiety starts to flood. There's little chance for future bliss, love doesn't offer a guarantee. Yet hope lingers like a faint kiss; or a promise left unfulfilled. But what we had, we can't rebuild, our dream was never meant to be.
