You said with your actions
I am not worth saving.
You said with your actions
You never loved me.
You said with your actions
You would let me drown in my thoughts.
How then am I supposed to trust you?
Why would I let you in again
To the darkest depths of my soul?
What am I to do with all this wasted love
That I am drowning myself in?
Do I bury it alive,
Covering it with heartache,
Or drown with despair?
What shall I do with this,
This love that has no purpose?
I will gather the remnants
And scatter them as ashes.
Perhaps then, your lies will dissipate
And all will be carried away.
