Verdad

Verdad

Love means saying no

Turning away

So the tears don’t show

Walking away

With your head held high

Heart breaking

Knowing it’s for the best

Not for you

But for your beloved

For without you

They will soar to new heights

With you

All they will have

Is you

And you are not enough

For anyone

Broken

Caught out again like a bug on a web

You reel me in to your trap

Not even noticing what you have done

Breaking my heart with a sudden snap

Dangling there on a string

Waiting for the axe to fall

The world suddenly seems so small

It only exists for you and me

But you are made of clouds and dreams

If I touch you, you would cease to be

Giving way to my plans and schemes

So look I can but never touch

A delicate balance is struck

Until another comes into your life

Even in dreams I have no luck
