Perception.....

"Change your perception....change your life"

Crying hysterically over lost times,
Head throbbing with numbing pain,
The glass of my soul, in a million pieces,
Lying on the floor in blood stains,

I pace the room, wild with disbelief,
How could someone change so fast?
Only yesterday I was so sure,
Our bond would forever last,

But is it the end of life itself?
Why must I drown my soul in her betrayal?
Do I not have a will to live for else?
Was she the only reason for me to be?

Life is all about perception,
Its time I changed mine,
I’m MORE than just about her,
She’s LESS than worth my life.

I know that she’ll be back,
Taking me for granted,
But to HELL with her now,
For my life has just started.

I feel like a jailbird, freed from prison,
I cry no more, and laugh with a reason,
She can sob all she wants for her treason,
I’m happy with my air now, and I won’t share,
Until someone cares, I won’t care.
F**k the weeping world, who has time to cry?
Let these tears perpetually dry,
For now I got a future to satisfy!

I absolutely love these lines: F**k the weeping world, who has time to cry?
Let these tears perpetually dry,
For now I got a future to satisfy!

These are powerful, and a great ending!

We all have to learn things the hard way, and at least
you were smart enough to get it, some just aren't.
Perception is something very vauble to have, and even the best of
us get blinded. AD

This is certainly a work derived from true emotions. You learned a lesson I myself just learned, and your use of imagery opened many emotions in me. Thank you!

You have learned one of the hardest and best life lessons out there.

I cry no more, and laugh with a reason,
She can sob all she wants for her treason

Let her cry, because you weren't the one who did wrong in the situation. If a person hurts you, the ONLY thing that you can do is learn from it and move on. Love isn't about hurt, lies and betrayal. Its about love and it shouldn't be anymore complicated than that.

Until someone cares, I won't care.

Sounds like you've learned your lesson well.

This is what I guess what we all have either learned or will learn from life.
This is damn reality of life and I left that sense of reality and trueness in your words very well.
Great attempt!
