wearing thin
I swallow hard because I know That what comes next will hurt I bite my lip to try to stop it from shaking The teeth have broken the skin And the blood tastes cold to me After all Those nights you kept me warm Id hold my breath just to hear you sleep I must admit I saw it coming The air between us had gotten harder yet to breathe Id run away if I could help it But I cant remember to forget your face You can say my heart has changed But its my will youve beaten down Id kiss you now But I fear my caustic tongue Would only serve to salt your wounds You are as beautiful as ever Yet Im starting to resent your smile Because its killing me to say this But Im dying inside to leave Its a place weve never been Its a waste to keep it in It means little to you but the world to me Written March 3rd, 2002 © on Mar 03 2002 03:43 AM PST 0 • 1
