mirrors

Found a heart I wanted to keep

One I’d die before I break

But I pushed you with my shadows

 

Called it love, though it was fake

I said, “Hurting means I care,”

But that was just the fear I wore

 

Never saw that you were bleeding

’Til the silence filled the room

All the tears you tried to hide from me

 

Spelled my name across your wounds

I thought pushing you would make you stay

 

And the moment that you faded

Was the moment truth came through

Every bruise I ever gave you

Was a mirror of my past

 

If you’d let me try to change it

I could learn to love you true
