Silent Killer

Getting over what love had in store.
   Realizing I was better off before.
Once again picking my HeArT off the floor.
(All because I answered the knock at Loves door)

Falling to my knees & asking why?! With a hole in my chest, I try not  to cry.
   Looking for answers.....Teary eyes to the sky.
Beginning to think it was all a lie.

I've got to be strong. My Mental Recovery...I have to hustle.
   So I hide the pain, under re-found muscle.

I'm getting my WeIgHt up with my HaTe...Ego is the TrIgGeR.
   One thing I've come to realize....Love, not Hate. Is the Silent Killer
