Hope Hurts
17 April, 2008
Author: LinzAy
My Love...I was told to never give up hope
That one day things may be
Sylvia was very encouraging in that way
But she never did see
The way you held me and made me smile
The promises that made me complete
She told me it takes two, to not blame myself
But I'm the one that chose to leave
...I did sit around feeling abandoned, though...
...So alone, just left to be...
My Love...I was told to never give up hope
To lock it away and never let it go
Sylvia was so encouraging in that way
But she never had the chance to know
How little trust you held for me
Even though you were my world-my night and day
I tried to show you my heart
It was so hard-But I regret walking away
...I sat alone, though, I cried alone...
...Did you really want me to stay?...
My Love...I was told to never give up hope
Do you know how badly hope hurts?
Sylvia doesn't know how much you hate me
If so, she may have never spoken those words
------- Author's Notes -------
I can't let go of this love for you and it hurts everyday. I wouldn't say it's becoming easier...I think I'm just learning to slowly accept it more. I miss you so much and you'll never understand the way everything truly was ~Lala~ |
