It’s so hard to deny emotional connection, for it's the strongest of all outlets...

I have a neediness, to disclose, to you, my feelings
But I question if I should conduct such a route
This cheating declaration, could bring a bitter resentment
Cause I’ve found opening up to be a refusal of sorts

Instead I just kissed your lips
Fearing you would tell me goodbye

But I feared departure was coming,
I knew you’d be scared and run
But I could not deny what was in my heart
Now I find my life in ashes,
My picture perfect in pieces
I spend my time kicking me,
Cause I know this is the cruelest act

Now our traumatized friendship, is reduced to nothing
You found it needed to be laid on the line
A thousand disturbing emotions, burn my feeble mind
As I try to figure out why
The hardest part is letting go of all the lies
But that is now the story of my life

To have known what was coming,
Knew my actions would cause bad blood
But logic was subdued by the heart
So I find my days in litigation, holding on to the pieces
Of what was before us,
But I tell you, that is such a long fall

I realized we were over, when my heart hurt to the point of burns
And I thought nothing could be worse than the loss of this
It's such a fight to win you back or just to move past
The constant recollection of your delicate and tender kiss…

I swear I knew the consequences,
Knew I was going to lose
But like I fool,
I listened to my imprudent heart
Now I wish I would find a way
To erase the damage
Put all this behind the two of us
And get down to the act of
The toughest mistake!
