What's done is done
written by IceBound03:07 PM 10/25/04and so the drama continues
one little slip of the lip
and everything crumbles
the egg shells beneath my feet
remind me of how i must watch what i say
one word could screw this all up
everything i've hoped for,
everything i've waited for...
part of me says that i deserve this
a love like hers is all worth while
but the other part of me...
my past...my other half,
is yellin in my ear,
"what the hell are you thinking?!"
" you know damn well ur goin to fuck up!"
" just like you always do!"
i want to blur out that image in my head,
want to kill the voice inside...
but i've learned that,
you can't change what someone is
without destroying who they were...
in a sense, it sounds just right,
but how do u destroy a part of yourself?
you can't! that's just the thing!
if i could take my life right now,
eliminate all the suffering,
all the pain she would endure...
i would...
she doesn't deserve to go through this...
doesn't need to be hurt...
i don't think she knows exactly what might happen
tho i want to believe she does,
i love her with all i've got and more...
and i don't want to see her down in a hole
because of me...
all this seen in a second,
a blink of her eye...
so she leans over and whispers...
"I want to jump" |
