And I Cry

Teardrops fall Shatter like crystal I am screaming Screaming As the blood stains my hands Running a little further Wounds opening wide Drifting away On a boat of angst Made for me By my "friends" Giant hands churn the water Looking up to see The people I love As my heart bleeds And I fall Down deeper D O W N I try to yell for help And am slapped in the face And I cry For those that I have lost And the tempest rages And behind my back They talk They think I don't know And I scream at them to stop But they can't hear They can't hear me To wrapped up in what I've done wrong To care about anything That I may have done right And I cry Because I thought that I could trust But I couldn't I was wrong once again I tried the benifit of the doubt It failed me again And I cry Because they don't get another try Because I am hurt And because I am leaving them Once and for all I won't stand the boat ride I won't take the tempest And I won't be slapped And stabbed in the back And then ridiculed For all of my faults And I cry Because I am through with them And I am leaving So I guess To these people That I onced called friends That this Is goodbye And I cry Written February 14th, 2002 © on Feb 14 2002 12:04 PM PST, Shayla Carter   18 • 0 • 10
