You could see my heart going astray,
You could sense my soul slowly ebbing away,
You could notice the color draining off my face,
Yet the shadow of silence followed you around all along,
You could understand the love was a sinking ship,
You could feel the wounds the hurt was inflicting,
You could observe we were in the sight of an evil eye,
You could realize everything damn well,
Yet your voice failed to reach my dying state,
And the saddest part of all was that I would've held your hand,
If only you whispered one word- "Stay."
You gave me your word that you would fight with the fate,
You said that you would rewrite each page,
You promised you'd burn the world if it fails to melt the ice in its heart,
You swore to God that you'd fill every void,
You told me that you would paint the canvas with the brightest hues of pink,
You made me believe that you'd bring the sun in my blue sky,
But then all you did was make it rain heavily,
And so the storms submerged everything we'd built,
And you left me in an ignominious state,
And the worst part of it all is I would've kept you close,
If only I could've heard you whisper one word- "Stay."
Why did you have to lead me in and then lock me there in that room?
Why did you have to deceive me into keeping faith?
Why did you have to burry the bitter truth in your heart for so long?
Why did you have to show me the thulian light and then darken my world?
Why did you have to lure me in with your promising voice?
Why did you have to tempt me into falling in this trap?
Why did you have to hide your true colors and then shade me blue so suddenly?
Why did you have to make me ignore my ghosts and get lost in your eyes?
Why did you have to make me turn a deaf ear to my heart and follow my heart?
Why did you have to give me so much and then take it all away?
Why did you have to leave after so much and not whisper one word- "Stay?"
