The Love That You Hold

We are done we are through I want to forget everything about you You’re like the old gum that’s stuck under my shoe Trusted and believed in someone that was so untrue Well guess what one plus one no longer equals two I risked my life and so much more For a relationship that just ended up on the floor It was no longer fun and dating you became a chore My heart you held in those rough hands of yours Little did I know being with you I was going to be at war You cheated on me with that little **** whore And you didn’t even know my heart that you held you soon tore GET OUT of my life was shouted with a roar Hitting the floor crying as I slammed the door The pain for you is something of a dream I thought I could take it but it’s far to extreme You and I were a great team Now look at us our love is floating down stream The part that hurts the most is I can’t even reach out and redeem I am over you and everything you represent You threw my heart out a sky scrapper building and now there is blood all over the cement The devil in my mind as I plot my revenge through the night I spent But thy Lord comes to me and says just repent Wiping up the blood from the ground trying to get rid of your scent But its no use my heart you left with a permanent dent I sit in my room just to stare at a wall in a gaze I hope that you come back one of these days NO I don’t want you as I stand up in praise As I crash back to the floor in sorrow in my old ways I am now lost in my own life’s maze Wishing and praying but your love is not just a phase The love I had and still have I hold dear But now and forever I live my life in fear I lost control of the wheel and can longer steer I loved you for over a year And just like that you up and disappear I love you still and hold you tight under my wing But I am choking, coughing, crying and wheezing From the toxic air that you keep on breathing Exhaling that poison is killing my soul But the cure of my death is the love that you hold © Jeremy Fennell
