Untitled.

We came here together , yet I'm still alone,
You can't hear me through my tears,
And this music isn't loud enough to drown my thoughts,
Cause I miss you and your standing right next to me,
Choking back to fake a smile,
Welling up with things I should say,
The day isn't long enough for the both of us,
And I don't want the nights to end,
Will this be another tragic ending to add to my collection,
A beautiful display of the many times I've fallen down,
I'm sorry you hide your hands,
And I'm sorry that's the way you've always been,
You pull away when I pull you near,
Adding another inch to the distance that separates us,
The ink has run dry and the tears spell  the words,
you will add to the box of the things you don't wanna hear,
It's not that important, right?
It's just something you choose not to deal with,
Am I so easily pushed aside,
Is it that you don't care at all?
My ears ring from this silence
I close my eyes and wish it all away...

I see me frowning in your eyes...
I see the fear in you...
Where no one ever should be...

hi,

this was really powerful in my opinion, made me sad, but i sort of understand the sentiment. my favorite line:

The ink has run dry and the tears spell  the words

that was awesome, i can relate to it really well because for some reason i can't write anymore, it's weird...but thanks for sharing this.
