Sweet surrender of love, cast down your sorrows
Your fingers gently seize onto my flesh
I willingly submit to your invasion
Plucking my heart ripe

I remember when you used to love me
The sweet nectar linger on your lips
Dripping tears of reconciliation
Speaking words of declaration

I'd like to believe that you're not satisfied
That our love preserved in your eyes
Those scopes which used to adore me
Now glossed over with hazy indifference

I now know by this deafening silence
And the weight left on "goodbye"
That I was never enough to love me
You never even tried.
Keep the love I gave to you and know that's all you'll get. I don't want it back.
