Words

They say hearts are broken
By words left unspoken
But all hopes are shattered
When you find your words never mattered
And all your dreams come crashing down

They say time will heal
The wounds and the pain you feel
But the scars left behind
At times spent together they remind
Are worse than the wound that caused them

They say you should set it free
If your love is true
It will return to you
But for me it was like a balloon
I let go of the string too soon
Now I just stare at it disappear in the horizon

Now don't say I did not try
A single tear I will not cry
What I lost was never mine
What you have turned down could have been yours forever.
