Love and Pain
Love filled my heart, filled all of me
It was great
While it lasted anyway.
Then it turned sour
What once gave me strength tore me down
All in the blink of an eye
I thought that was the end right than
But it wasn’t.
No, the end started long ago
Slowly and silently poisoning my head and heart
Slowly but surely, killing me.
I felt love, and I felt pain, but they are all the same,
Aren’t they? They are beginning to feel that way
The truth is you filled me with that poison
You convinced me that I would be okay, that it would all be okay
You were killing me, and you succeeded
While I was healing you, absorbing all of your poison
And I succeeded.
That’s why you left, isn’t it?
For the same reason you leave a hospital
You were fixed
I was your doctor and you were my killer
