tell me something

Tell me something

Tell me you care whether I live or die

Tell you will at least try

To love a stranger like me whose smile

Is only there just to hide the pain for a while

Tell me that this heartbeat of mine is not wasted

On things that have my emotions twisted

In a ball of confusion      

I do not know what I did

Tell me loving you won’t make me bleed

Because at this moment all my thoughts are poured out

In the tears that ran down this drain

Tell me there is sunshine after this rain

Cause this storm seems forever

Every step I take feels like blades cutting into this heart of mine

Therefore I am left with one question did you ever

Did you ever feel the same way about me

Did the skies seem brighter whenever you heard my voice

Did my words ever dwell in your heart

Did they ever find a resting place

Or did they disappear when they left my lips

Was this an illusion that could never be reality

Did you ever feel that your world had a place for me in it

Or were the feelings I hold for the faint hearted

Hearts that could never see their true potential

Tell me something

Whisper it so my lips can feel your presence

So that the stars can hear your heartbeat

Whenever you choose to lie to me

Tell me something did you ever feel the same

Or was I a challenge that you marked off your checklist

Only to move on and to leave your footprint

On this heart that you left on this floor

Tell me something

Are my tears wasted on what could never be

Tell me was this a lie was it an illusion

Or a dream that could never be

These are just simple questions

Please put me out of my misery

Was there a chance that you and I

Somehow could ever be

Tell me something and let my heart beat free
