Fallen

This goes out to my ex-boyfriend...
Big dark clouds
And fallen skies
Watch the light
Drain from my eyes
More then fear
And more then emotion
My drowning is clear
In the wide open ocean
Suffocating
My bleeding heart
I dread the day
My world fell apart
The explanations
Of you fleeing my life
They're slowly cutting me
Like the blade of a knife
Realization
I can now surely see
The reason you left
And turned your back on me
It wasn't sympathy
Nor was it trust
Simply speaking
It was all just lust
I was nothing
At all to you
And yet you act
Like it's not true
It wasn't fact
Just one big dream
Really better without you?
Or is that only how it seems?
Now you work through
Twists, turns, and binds
Your mow corrupting
My innocent mind
Ashes to ashes
And dust to dust
I'm scared of loving
For you broke my trust
Now I lay me down to sleep
Turing relentlessly
From all the pain
Soundless without making a peep
We can't put a price
On what we had
It makes me cry
While still making me mad
I know it was fake
I obviously loose
Knowing it was my
Love you abused
