Slow Destruction
Is my despair your happiness?
Does your joy have to bring me pain?
Your arms embraced my heart with love
The warm feeling of hope
but you have gone astray
You walked in my life
but walked back out
leaving me in the dark
I am haunted by your memory
Your eyes once a beautiful art gallery
now just filled with rows of glass
was I never good enough
to be called yours?
you filled my heart
with tenderness and care
but destroyed it with a blink of an eye
I'm left with nothing but sadness
tears surround me
overwhelming me
flooding me with anger
hurt
and the strongest form of unhappiness
I wonder what I did to deserve this?
is this what they mean by love is a battlefield?
Too bad I left my armor behind
and I was deeply wounded
and blinded by this called love
or maybe I wasn't
I was just too caught up to see
the signs
of a slow destruction.
