The Cold Truth
The Cold Truth.
I wouldn't lie to you about how I feel.
You deserve better.
I won't kiss you because it'll feel real.
And you deserve better.
I can't give you what you're asking for,
I can't give you what you need.
But I can give you my honesty,
So take it please.
My heart doesn't stop when I hear your name,
Don't let yours so the same for me.
I'm terribly sorry.

He said to me.
It knocked me away like a tree
From a harsh summer breeze.
How was I to function after something like that?
All the pieces that I've put together with the glue of my fairytale..
It's broken.
My soul..
What soul?
I am now hollow.
At least, he was honest, right?
Someone tell me that's the bright side...
