The Inevitable

The Inevitable

I still feel my hands shake,

Hoping you'll come back and call it a mistake.

I remember when we used to ride on your bike,

And you would say everything about me you liked.

I loved those days,

When I could be in love and unafraid.

But now I'm scarred,

Like a forgotten toy left in the back yard.

I'm paranoid,

Knowing nothing can ever fill this void.

And I'm lonely,

Feeling much more silent than I used to be.

For my voice has been taken,

When I thought you loved me I was mistaken.

My feelings are now completely terrifying,

When you pointed out problems I kept denying.

You said you needed a release,

So we could both finally be at peace.

But I was so happy with you,

No matter how much you think it's not true.

"Why should we try to prolong the inevitable?"

Maybe because I never wanted to go through this awful hell.
