Unsaid

What do you do
When words left unsaid
Are buried
Deep
Deep within ur head

What do you do
When your closely guarded
World decides to 
crash and burn

What do you do
When dependence 
becomes addiction 
And is set on fire
A detox so brutal
No one left to admire

Pro's and con's
They say you use
To sort out
What's happening within you
And what to do
When you start breaking in two

To leave?
Because you can't keep up
Because you're not perfect enough
Because so much hatred within
Started to spill out

To stay?
Because a promise was made
Because a bond was formed
Because you invested so much
You're afraid of what will remain
After a choice is made

Its seems all you've been doing
Is putting off the inevitable happenings
Locking them away
In Pandora's box of dismay

Waiting carefully 
behind your shield
Waiting fearfully 
for them to be revealed

In a thought wrecked mind
A plan so confused
Not even the maker could use

How to start
How to end
A short story
Of what was supposed 
to be life long friends

Naivety so blinded
That even the most rational mind
Was left dumbfounded

Con's weighed up more
And a decision was made
To finally settle the score
With cold heart
Left when words unsaid
Became angry bats within

The final letter was written
Ultimatum was made
Now we wait
Wait and see
Who will stand up
For a bond left in the dust.
