I tried
Then I cried
I believed
Then I grieved
I escaped
Then I ached
I loved
Then I shoved
I broke
When I wrote
These words
Cutting like swords
Through my heart
That fell apart
When I turned my back
And lacked
The courage
To face the rage
Cut the ties
Face the lies
Seen the damage
And somehow managed
Not the cry
When my eyes
Looked deep into yours
And closed the door
On our feelings
Never healing
This tortured wound
Doomed
Consumed by my weakness
I must confess
I feel less
From this mess
For the one
That won.
