False Happiness
Four years blind-sighted I followed your growing shadow
Hand on heart, bright lights luminated our pathway
Without even knowing it's changed
I walked beside you in darkness.
Only you know if it was Real or not,
I cannot tell anymore.
How dense was the substance behind your words "I love you"
Doing anything and everything for them, I learned that was love.
Do you know my heart?
All I saw was you, I should've known better
But all my heart knew was to love you
In the moments we shared together, I wanted to give you my all.
Love entrenched in my soul
Giving me strength to accomplish anything, for Us.
I’d erase even all your painful memories.
Laughter and hardship together, my bright smile to change your world.
If happiness was truly deep-woven into your heart
You would have fought.
No battle to begin with,
Fate has played a trick on us.
Feelings showered of happiness was truly false
For you to let go/surrender so easily
Our time together has been a disguise how unhappy you were
This path shouldn’t have been walked on
Little by little, small memories are being drawn inside our hearts
I'll demand my heart to stop feeling those pricks
Unconditional is only a word
I cannot be with someone who looks at love so little.
We could have found success together
You fool
P.S. Don't patronize me that our time together was only a good moment.
