Hearts can be smashed but still beat with every breath.
Hateful words can replay in the mind like a broken record.
Sometimes, thoughts can kill.
A chill runs down your spine in a last effort to keep you sane.
But you can't be sane.
You can't even sit still.
You want to scream.
Silence is the loudest cry for help.
No body seems to notice.
The mask you put on your face conceals your emotions.
Carefully you pull it off.
Just for that one person.
You pray to God they won't make fun of you.
Behind your mask of perfection lie the flaws you dread to show.
Tears form in your eyes to lock away your secrets.
The truth is only revealed if you reveal it.
Lies are brought on in order to protect your heart.
There is not much left to protect.
Piece by shattered piece, you show that one person everything.
Things you would never show anyone else.
Questions you never want answered.
Opinions you never want changed.
They slap you.
The mask cracks.
They tell you how stupid you are being.
They tell you what a lying bitch you are.
You can't seem to think straight.
Your heart is pounding making it harder to breathe.
You are caught in a situation you didn't wish to be in.
But you brought it upon yourself.
You are the one who wanted things back to the way they were.
You are the one who made the move.
You poured your heart out and they poured it into the sink.
Isn't this what you wanted?
Didn't you want the truth?
The truth hurts.
They don't want you in their life anymore.
They don't want you fucking things up for them.
You were a foggy window.
You wouldn't let them view the outside world how they wanted to.
You refused to respect them.
Now look at you.
With your cracked masked and tearful eyes.
You will never be what they wanted.
Open your eyes.
You failed at this.
Get a life they say.
But aren't you living one?
Block them out.
Because they have blocked you out.
