Save My Heart
By bedazzled •
The fire in your eyes fades to embers
but steadily continues to glow,
worries pounce on parolling thoughts,
sieving through what I know.
Shuffling through the files of my mind,
searching for the unknown,
have you just pushed your feelings aside?
or like mine, have they grown?
Can you see the embers reflected in my eyes?
If you don't burn for me then smother mine,
seeing the two of you together is torture
but to you I will always appear fine.
I won't give you the satisfaction of knowing,
exactly what I feel,
'cause I'm not handing my heart over
until I know this is real.
Stop tugging at both arms and jerking me around,
the unspoken words don't say it all,
the mystery that enshrouds this mess
creates greater heights from which to fall.
I am done with falling for you
just to drift apart,
find a way to communicate with me
before I lose my heart.
