Bled Dry.

I really am happy for you...

The words trickle out of my fingertips
onto the screen for you to read
all the while my heart on my sleeve
there where you could cut it easily
bleeds with every beat.

I was foolish to think you cared
I knew you were the type
to touch my heart and give me hope
your touch a bit too rough
my heart lies broken on the floor.

I tell the world I won't leave you
that I will stand by and watch
the two of you love each other
thinking nothing of my heart
I gave it as my gift to you.

I'm not the kind to run away and hide
I'll be here when you need me
when everything falls apart,
in the meantime while you're happy,
I'll let you slice my heart, bleed it dry.

The tears have yet to fall from my eyes
they burn like acid, yet i swear I won't cry
You always were my friend, nothing more
Its my mistake that I must bear, a lesson learned
to know the feel of a broken heart
even if it happens twice in one night.
