Door Number Three

I ache with a pain, that can be measured in tears
It is spoken of, in silence
And felt, only in nightmares...
This leaves me weak and tired
And leads me to wonder, if I ever was strong
You didn't fool me, I fooled myself
I took what I wanted, and comprimised what I needed
Then, I chose what was behind door number three
And found nothing, but any empty I.O.U, signed in blood
But, the blood was my own...
I looked at myself, in the mirror of your eyes
Right before you walked away
What I saw was the truth
I saw what cannot be heard by the deaf
I heard what cannot be seen by the blind
And I knew, but I just would not admit...
Even though the words were never spoken
They were heard, by us both
And the dream that lies dormant, now
Will not always be so...
