Fall Apart

You were staring into space,
you were waiting once again.
Patience took you for everything
you were worth.

Sit down for a moment,
spill your heart onto the ground.
Tell me your secrets,
tell me your fears.
Tell me, and all will be different.

When he left,
he turned the lights off.
you were abandoned.
You were alone once more.
And you cried over him.

You looked at those pictures
of the two of you,
until they were old and worn.
The colors had faded away,
just like your love for life.

So you sit here now,
your expression blank.
Do you know what to think?
Do you know what to feel?

Don't speak of misery
if you can't feel pain.
Remember these words
and maybe you won't fall
apart again.
