Master of Disguise

People go but how They leave always stays. Call it what it is, A parting of ways. If you want to test My water on a whim. Make damn sure, You know how to swim. It didn't kill me but something Inside me died that day. When she left me, It took my breath away. I struggle to tell The days apart. Feels like I'm right Back at the start. All I loved gone In the blink of an eye. I guess she had to Spread her wings and fly. I ride the proverbial Red line. I'm in a state of Mental decline. My temper flares, I'm angry, I feel irate. Irritated like a bear That can't hibernate. I sit here and watch The airplanes fly. I sit here and watch The world pass me by. There was a time I believed It was me you needed to find. I question that, when You left me behind. As the tears roll Down my cheek. The pain is so great, Not a word I can speak. My world cold, A severe winter storm. You were the heat, You kept me warm. When she ran away The avalanche began I'm cold and my heart Is snowed-in. I stop the tears, Bring them to a halt. I admit my part, I own my fault. If you look for it you can See it in my eyes. I play the part, I'm a master of disguise. Turbo1904
