Last Night

Last night words flew between us,
Words that stuck sharper than a dagger.
Love is more dangerous
Than a fully loaded gun
And we both learned that the hard way.

Last night tears ran heavily from my eyes
While you stood there and watched.
You stood away, not sure what to do.
I cast you away from me,
I didn't want you near me.
You left and I cried alone.

Last night you apologized to me for everything you did,
Everything you said and thought.
I couldn't accept your fake sorry.
I could finally see your fake love
Through the cracks in your mask.

Last night you broke me in two.
I spent the rest of the night alone
Without your arms around me.
Last night we said goodbye
