"Your Name"

There is a sound that wakes me up at night

I hear your name but I can't seem to find you

Your name is carved up in my mind

But you know what else can't be forgotten?

The words that mean you don't feel the same

The words uttered that unfortunate day

The truth that successfully ripped my heart

And I'm glad I didn't get to see your face at that moment

I honestly don't know what I'm going to do

I will probably slap you or cry ugly while saying "It is fine"

But a part of me wanted you to look me in the eye as you say those words

You should have looked into my eyes that day you killed me

That way my stare will be stuck in your mind

And you will remember the heart you broke

I say your name to remind me that I am still alive

That I still have a reason to live, a reason to continue

Now saying it only kills me, reciting it only breaks me

I can only compare myself to a person who is dead

The blood flowing through your veins is cold

But the ones in your hands felt warm

What did you feel when you stab me?

Does it feel nice to have the ability to break somebody?

Did you even think of what I was going to feel that night?

Your name is a needle in my heart, it is an irony

It is the most beautiful sound but I don't want to hear it anymore

Only pain and maybe echoes in my ear,

Only lies fill my confused mind

Your name is baggage that I don't need anymore

But I still carry it everywhere I go

I even hid it in the title of this book

Sometimes it's four letters, sometimes it's you

I call you Grey while my friends call you "Why"

Capital letters to emphasize what is true

The truth is that my heart still calls for you.
