now i know

im just done

theres so much past

with so much pain

a lot of lonely nights

and only more hurt to gain

 

words of anger

with hate to the rim

nothing looks happy

my heart feels dim.

 

and im thinking

its time to walk away

so much you need to know

yet nothing left to say

 

we need to go far

and try to move on

because i dont want to sit here

and wait to wake up when your gone

 

i remember all those times

things were becoming alright

we had moved past the old problems

we had no reason to fight

 

now we sit in silence

the silence is so much worse.

we go on saying nothing

we run away from eachother like a curse.

 

and im thinking

its time to walk away

so much you need to know

yet nothing left to say

 

we need to go far

and try to move on

because i dont want to sit here

and wait to wake up when your gone

 

So today i got up

and sat with you

I said nothing

and you did too

 

i knew then

we were pulling apart

i know its best to leave

before you again break my heart

 

and i know now

its time to walk away

so much you need to know

yet nothing left to say

 

i need to go far now

and try to move on

because i dont want to sit here

and wait to wake up when your gone

Yes silence is aweful and yes it is a sign that all has died. Yet it also says there is an unsaid, something being held back or held onto that forces the silence to scream loud and clear. Painful is this in it's meaning but wonderful it is written. Nice job.

[Matt Shriver]

Well done. Great read.

i like it. the rhythm gets a little awkward in parts, but i can definitely see the emotion here.
