A Grave

I waited for you under false hope

Letting my hair fall into my face to hide the tears that found themselves in my eyes

For a moment I was alive inside the reflection of your own.

You whispered promises that elevated a pulse so loud that I couldn’t hear my own thoughts.

With no walls to keep out the pain I disappeared deeper into the hollows of the land that was my safe haven. Find me buried there today. Walls replaced with dirt. A grave to emotion. A grave of us.

Captivated by a kiss that surrendered these walls to their collapse. Open, exposed.

When you peaked behind my curtain you saw raw passion and reckless devotion.

Fear made me the victim of false promises. She replaced whispers of love with that of doubt.

With no walls to keep out the pain I disappeared deeper into the hollows of the land that was my safe haven. Find me buried there today. Walls replaced with dirt. A grave to emotion. A grave to us.

Oooooo a grave to us.

Oooooo a grave to trust.

I’m burying all my emotions.

With no walls to keep out the pain I disappeared deeper into the hollows of the land that was my safe haven. Find me buried there today. Walls replaced with dirt. A grave to emotion. A grave to us.
