  Candles glistened in the night.
as emptiness filled the room.
except for the cold breeze.
flowing through the open window.
i just stared at the wax burning away.
in amazement of how alone
i really am tonight.

  sadness pictured my smile.
but it really wasn't a smile at all.
as it was filled with nothing but
hurt and pain.
and it was right then that
i wished that life could
have been less cruel to me.

  i held my heart close.
trying to fix the holes
that never seemed to end.
i wanted so hard to believe in me.
but what is life worth
if you can't even believe in yourself?

  i tried so damn hard to tell you
that i can never change.
but you put the nails in the coffin today.
as the words you spoke
broke my heart forever.
unableing me to ever forgive you.
of the hate that you showed me today.
