Letting You See

The thoughts flow through my mind
I will the words to spill forth
Though I know I can't make you understand

I'm not brave enough
My words are left unsaid
The bitter thoughts rule my head

When will you see?
You never thought of another view
Your perspective you saw
Mine you never knew

My trust was your goal
You almost earned it
But then everything changed
And I was left alone

So I ask you
How would you react
If someone gave you the key
and then changed the lock?

You were never quite right in my eyes
There were always missing pieces
So when you stole my heart and then disappeared
Why was I surprised to find the blame pinned on me?

You were always my mystery
Something I could never quite grasp
Time trudges onward with no word from you
I find the beauty of life drowned in thorns

In my mind, the turmoil roils
As I struggle to discover the truth
I tell myself not to care
But in my heart I ask myself
Why do I hold a stranger so dear?
