Torn

Its a songfic I heard the song "Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia and was inspired by her lyrics. its about the pain my ex-boyfriend caused me.

He was warm; he came around like he was dignified…

He smiled at me this amazing smile, something jumped inside my chest; I seemed to have lost my breath. I denied him at first but he kept coming around, that smile always making me melt. He smelled so amazing every time he came near, whenever he hugged me, he would whisper in my ear. His breath would linger on my skin, chills ran down my spine; I was completely taken by him.

He showed me what it was to cry…

Looking into your eyes…I can’t explain what I felt, when I said “I love you”, I meant it with my whole heart

Well you couldn’t be that man I adore…

You’re not the same guy that you were before…your eyes are no longer friendly and warm.

You don’t seem to know, seem to care what your heart is for…

I opened up my soul, I let you in; I never once thought that you’d take that to your advantage; I let you see my imperfections…never once was I second guessn’

But I don’t know him anymore…

It’s been a whole damn month since you ripped out my heart. I cried out all my tears, lying on the couch. The bruises may have faded, but the pain lingers on, I’ve erased you from my life; praying that I can move on

There’s nothing where he used to lie…

It was when I woke up one night, I could feel it; this was real…you’ve killed me and just simply left me here

My conversation has run dry…

With a pained smile I walk through the day, pretending like its all okay. When I try to speak, nothing comes out; empty words without a sound

That’s what’s going on…nothings fine, I’m torn…

You were the one that gave me wings to fly; you watched me, with your beautiful brown eyes, fall from the sky. But now you’re not even here to see me die; to see the last tears I cry

I’m all out of faith; this is how I feel…

With a cold, empty heart, I looked up to the moon, hugging my knees. I wonder if she knew. Sobbingly, my tears glistening from her light, I choked up the courage to ask her why; “What didn’t I do right?”

I’m cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor…

Your once loving touch turned cold and hard; I had your handprints bruised onto my arms…with ferocity burning through your veins, you pinned me down; this was your game; in that moment of agonizing pain I realized, I had been played…
