Jigsaw

My tongue swells in my mouth
As the words fight to come out
Seems we're just
Falling down
And still we break
Without sound
Covering up already blinded eyes
Masterfully recreating devious lies
My heart drowns in blood and emotions
As you drown in pieces of yourself
And the pain will follow me
But I can put myself back together
You - a jigsaw - have no such luck
Mine commands respect
Yours doesn't merit it
I won't let you inherit it
My eyes, my nose
Start feeling sick as the pressure grows
My full veins course
As soul marries remorse
Hit the button - let's go back
Before I ever knew you
Before I ever grew you
Before I ever threw you
Truth is I can't undo you
And now I can't see through you
Or sing to you
And somehow I miss you
Just want to kiss you - feel you, but I can't
Other than I do every...day...
They told me that this would make it okay
It's best for me they say
That the pain will go away
And the memories will fade
Maybe I'll forget
The choices I made
The regret
An empty pit inside of me
Cries violently
May one day only weep silently.
