Ruby 1
You left a scar on the innermost part of my soul
Never to be perfect again
It was untouched
Until you came
At first you improved me
Made me pure
Made life exciting
But just as quickly you took away my innocence
I can never return to the place of unpolluted existence
We grew up to fast
I learned things far before I was ready
I can say I learned
But I could never say you taught me
To teach seems like such an honest deed
But all you did was lie
The harm you did to me is always with me now
It’s never going to fade
It may be forgotten
But it will always be there
In the back of my mind
There to remind me of all things once pure, once sacred, once me
But you broke me
I’ll never be the same
Part of me has disappeared
And it carried with it my love of life and my will to live
I still remember every lie you told and every secret that you didn’t keep
I’m still mad, I’m so mad it’s not only anger
It’s morphing into insanity
You’ve wrecked me
But I still miss you
I still wish you were with me
I would give anything for you to love me again
‘Cause I still love you.
