April's Fool
I wouldn't put my hope in this
or would I?
Could I muster the strength
to be tested and tried again?
You say that you're sorry
But are you really?

And when those words entered my soul
when the realisation blossomed
like flowers in spring, bright and bold
Those words like a healing salve
over numerous wounds
washing over softly, soothing
Those words could save me
like a branch of hope to a drowning man
pulling me to safety
Those words like a fire place
in the middle of the harshest winter
But I would be safe wrapped in your words

But waves of doubt question what you claim
Do you actually mean what you say?
Or do you enjoy the control of my emotions
Watching me writhe in pain
Seeing me suffer empowers you does it?
Do you really long for the times that have passed
Or are these words just a stroke of inspiration
Simply a muse to spark your creativity

Dare I assume that you meant it?
Audacity doesn't look good on me

Its just that this hapless heart keeps gripping, gripping
It won't let the memories go to sleep
I would tell you if I could
if I thought that it would make a difference
