Useless Toy

Once upon a time I was falling in love, now I'm only falling apart,
There's nothing I can do to rid the pain in my heart.

My eyes glisten, the after math of tears,
Screaming, wailing, crying, weeping, nobody hears.

The sparkle in my eyes are gone, never to come back,
Tell me, why did we end up this way? What did I lack?

I use to think your kisses were like glycerin, sweet and strong,
Now that feelings gone, I dont' know what went wrong.

My thoughts are clouded, as dark as the miasma, thick and smoggy,
Unable to think or see, my visions foggy.

Left me paralyzed, unable to feel, numb,
Left feeling stupid, used, dumb.

They say its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all,
But sometimes I wish you never gave me that call,
I should have built up that brick wall,
Let you climb over, only to let you fall.

You had the key to my heart, but you tossed it away,
Gave it up, no second doubts, with no delay.

The only thing you were best at was playing games,
There's no one you can blame but your self, no other names.

Man, I use to think we'd be together forever,

Just looking at the starry night,
Up in the mountains, away from all the light,
Hidden from the world, out of sight,
From all the violence and the fight,
Just being with you made everything alright.

But now I know what we had was a ficticious love,
Nothing real as my soul floats on above.

My heart feels so sad as I fall into the depths of sorrow,
I feel like I can't go on, like there is no tomorrow.

Will my mood always be melancholy, never to be filled with joy,
Only to be used and used again, tossed away like a useless toy.
