Emerald Eyes

I tried to forget you
I tried to give you up
I tried so hard
But it was never enough
Maybe we'd be better off
If we could go back to the start
Maybe if we never met
You would never break my heart
I wouldn't be so closed off
I wouldn't be so afraid
I would be able to love again
Instead of running away

Truth is.

I don't know why
Words are the hardest to find
With every vulnerability I hide
My heart is surrounded by ice
And every "nothing" is a lie
The truth is hidden behind my eyes
And the words come out at night
"I need you," and without you I'll die.
