my heart bleeds

My Heart Bleeds

Another lonely night...
my heart bleeds but doesn't ache.

I crave for the tears
that once pained me so.
They're gone now,
just like the shadows in the day
that faded away through the night.

My heart bleeds but it doensn't ache.

No longer can I cry
because of the truth that I learned to embrace.
You left...
and I let you leave.
Things will never be the same again.
We changed all that.
The pang is still inside of me
and your memory stays in the recesses of my mind.

I am not yet done grieving...
grieving for a love that will be lost,
for a hope that was forgotten,
for someone who gave up on me.
But my loneliness isn't impairing.
It is like a mound of callus
covered up my heart
and the pain you caused
feels like a whip of thorns no more.

My tears had left me...
now I couldn't cry anymore.

My journey doesn't stop here.
I still grieve
but not with tears.

Nights like this
when everything is so still
and the slightest sound I make
reminds me of you...
I used to cry myself to sleep.

Tonight's different.
I love you still...
but I can no longer cry.

My heart bleeds...but it doesn't ache anymore.
