The gentle voice that I can hear
ever so soft, and ever so near,
a voice I thought I would never find
is right here, here by my side.
Tranquil and peaceful is what I feel
when your deeply set eyes stare into mine
I know those eyes, there eyes I've seen before
capable of hurt, deception and lies.
>From this I know keep my distance afar
yet my mind says stay away, and my heart says don't steer too far.
A sweetalker for sure without any doubt
always finds a way to squirm him little self out.
Now his overwhelming words no longer fool me
for I can see past those shallow lies
these words were once the key to my heart
but now only serve as a piercing dart.
They've entered my ears many a times a
before.
enough times to know there like a sudden slamming door, leaving a soft spot
bruised and sore.
Now once a loving heart
has turned empty and dry.
Dry, but not dried through warmth and heat
instead dry like ice, dry and cold
with no heartbeat.
