Left

It hurts less every day

But that scar still remains

That hole in my heart

Won't ever fade away

I opened up to you

And I thought I was safe

You were just along for the ride

I made myself into your fool

The grass was so green

And the blue sky so clear

When we started this drive

But it was all just a dream

Now that piece of myself

I presented with love

It's been opened and left

It sits alone on that shelf

I used to cry at night

Trying to use my tears

To feel whole again but

Now I think I never might

But my tears have faded

Just like that horrible scar

The hole will never fill

I'm left feeling hated

I fell for you so hard

And for a while I thought

You loved me, too

But my perceptions are marred

You let me fall far

And it tore me apart

You left a deep gash

And you never felt sorry

But I'm slowly healing

Picking up the pieces

Starting all over again

And numbing the feelings
