Sitting there,
Chatting it up on the phone with your Precious.
There was this pause between you two,
They sigh slowly, “I’m sorry, but, I can’t, it’s over.”
You scream,
“What the hell?”
They hang up,
You slam the phone down.
You didn’t know it,
But the entire time, you were lied to.
The Cheater was right next to your Precious all along,
You sit in silence and in shock.
You were sure,
Everything was perfect!
Those words,
Were spoken.
Those words you fear,
Have come true.
You grab your hoodie,
And go to the kitchen.
Make a sandwich,
And grab a couple bucks for the road.
You’ve had enough,
“Let’s see what they say when they see my face on the news.”
A runaway,
It’s your destiny.

“We have breaking news coming to you tonight, we found a unidentified body over in the ravine last night at 10:35 pm. We believe that the person was in some shoot-off and the body was ditched. If you have any information please call…”
The sound goes out.

“NO! NO!”,
Your ex screams.
Oh, they know that face,
Now, if only they could dial the number.
Everyone has doubt,
It doesn’t matter really what’s up,
It just matters that it’s there,
We strive to figure out,
What the hell is going on,
To figure out,
Why our hearts drop at every thought,
Of that one special person.
You know you have them,
And they have you,
But deep down,
You know,
One bad move,
One wrong thing said,
One wrong thing done,
And everything crashes down.
Those “doubts” become fear.
That fear becomes real.
It keeps goin’ and goin’,
Deeper, and deeper,
Until,
You’re safely in your lover’s arms.
Doubts?
You were stupid to even consider it.
I see your pain,
I keep quiet,
only because,
I know,
I can't help you.
I feel your pain,
I keep quiet,
only because,
I know,
I'm afraid to hurt.
I hear your pain,
I keep quiet,
only because,
I know,
it would kill me,
to hear your whispers of death.
I taste your pain,
I keep quiet,
only because,
I know,
That when our lips touch,
it's the only thing keeping you here.
I am your pain,
I keep quiet,
only because,
I know,
that I would lose you,
and everything else.
