Its all the things you didn't say
That told me you'd stay
All the mysteries we hadn't uncovered
That promised to pave a way
All the diluted truths
You claimed I couldn't handle
When concentrated
I mean how ridiculous is that ?

A hiding place
Behind my insecurities you made
Maybe that's where the feelings started to fade
But we refused to call it a spade
We dragged it out
And watched the end getting sharper

Someone was bound to get hurt
And oh you and I knew who it would be
It took two words
To stop the beat of my heart
"It's over"
And it really was ......

Pity my tears didn't match
Your pretty face
That the misery I was feeling
Didn't even scratch
I guess you really don't need  the whole match
To start a fire
One stick is enough

Now the fire burns
In a lone veld somewhere
Lit up by the sun
And swallowed by its heat
The fire now
Completely useless
Like I am ,at this moment
