I watched the fire in my soul slowly die,
Roses are red and violets are blue, Whomever said that was cradling a lie.
Roses now wilted and violets are gone,
Nothing seems real.
I feel so alone.
Remember me smiling and all seemed okay?
It's a mere memory of what was yesterday.
I forgot how to smile,
I forgot how to live.
Emotions went dead,
And words left unsaid.
Now bleeding and wilting alone on the floor,
I keep waiting to hear you knock on that door,
But you won't ever will you?
I have to make peace,
You are now what I loath,
The monster, the beast.
This is my war, the battle I fight,
Trying to focus,
Not loosing sight.
This turmoil of feelings,
No tears left to cry.
You did it,
You showed me,
I don't have to try.
Effort and loyalty made me weak,
The beast you became is the power I seek.
