You asked about the mark
Bruising my cheek bone
I turned, scared to tell you
Afraid that you wouldn't believe
And that you'd leave, not knowing
The truth...

Asking again, you gave me your hand
So I told you of the stolen kiss
The fight during, and how his hand
Struck back when I struggled free
You blinked and asked softly
"Is that all?"

Confused, I nodded and waited
Wanting just to be held, but
Not quite knowing how to ask.
You left without a backward glance
I heard through the grapevine
You were mad at him, not me
But the silence grows
I'm alone...

I keep trying to reach out to you
But each time, my efforts are ignored
And the time after is a little weaker
I know inside that I did no wrong
That it's not really my fault
I don't think you do, though
And that hurts.




With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.

misunderstandings can really tear a relationship up without communication. I hope this works out for the lady in question.

I knew someone once who had lost a fiance because she told him she had been abused.  It  was very unfair, but some people just can't deal with it. Fortunately, she did find someone who understood and loved her for herself.  There's always hope!

To love another person is to see the face of God.
