when words fail,
there is only
blood and tears
to fill the gaps
there is only

unrelenting pain
in my head
when i have to hurt
to ease the burn,
and if you only
understood,

but words don't matter.

betrayal flashes in your eyes
every time you see my face.

i'd tell you
everything i'd rather do
than what i have to,

but words fail me.

and i have to apologize
in a few more years.
