Locked away in my heart

locked tight in a box
left alone in my heart
making my chest ache
with every beat

told to ignore it
that it would go away

but the wood is rotting
and the lock is rusty
letting all of it out

all of the pain
all of the hurt
all of the tears
I never had a chance to cry
all of the betrayl
all of the lies

all locked away
in my bleeding heart
trying heal the wounds
she left behind

but instead they just bleed
and my heart continues to ache
frozen until someone gives me
the love I thought I deserved

*still dealing with the end of a really good relationship with my bff*
