Laid To Rest

My heart lies cold and lifeless And not beating in my chest Your cold and hateful words Has laid my tender heart to rest I had loved you for so long Waiting for your loving touch Not caring the days gone by Not worried overly much But the days turned into weeks And finally into years And then my eyes grew dim And I could not stop the tears You had found yourself another And I Believing you were mine You had found this so amusing That I had wasted all this time Such sweet lies had passed your lips But they too are as cold as mine For I didn’t die alone my dear I made sure you ran out of time Now you heart lies cold and lifeless And not beating in your chest Your cold and hateful words Has laid your spiteful heart to rest.
