I open my mouth
Sounds spill out
Thoughts form words
But my feelings are not heard
You yell and scream
I try to explain but face defeat
You cannot see what I see
Refuse to stop and hear me
You point accusingly
And hurl accusations at me
I try to find ways to make you see
But it just gets ugly
You are mad, you are done
I feel the sting as my tears come
But you don't care
You turn away, leaving me there
I guess our love wasn't enough
You crushed me down in the dust
You ripped out my heart
You have torn my dreams apart
I thought this was real love
I had even wished on stars above
I had envisioned our lives together
But perhaps in the end this is better
Now I see it wasn't meant to be
I will let you go, so you can be happy
For you are too good for me
And this is a truth I finally see
