All but a Memory
Silently breaking down,
 No tears will be found.
 You’ll pass me everyday
 I will appear to be ok.
 I’m secretly, silently breaking down.
 I’ll smile and laugh without a frown,
 But I hide behind my empty mask.
 Waiting for someone to notice, to ask.
 If innocence is beauty, then I’m a beast.
 Days are weeks,
 Everyday is a strain,
 Months wreak pain.
 Temporary happiness,
 Moment’s fake bliss,
 Promises fade away.
 Right along with the days
 Of what used to be
 The fragile memories of you and me.
 You promised to stay
 Only for me to watch you fade away.
 Slipping through my fingers
 I try not to remember,
 My nightmares and reality
 Is now a mere actuality.
 You’re completely satisfied
 To stand by and hear me cry
 I plead for you to believe
 Only to find out your naive
 How can you walk out?
 Especially right now.
 I’m done with you
 And everything connected to your new
 Perfectly broken life
 Where nothing will be right
 I won’t let this ruin me
 Now you can only wonder about you and me
 Say your goodbyes through your broken teeth,
 Cause you can fool everyone but me.
 I’m running and never looking back,
 I’m getting my life back on track
 I’ll be everything you dreamed of
 Ill do that and rise above
 All this will only be a memory
 Of all this pain of you and me.
