Butterfly wings

Your voice still lingers
although it is faint
but burnt into my soul
is the look on your face

held in your arms
i always felt safe
take you out of my life
and i let back in the pain

i was just a pawn
in you sick and twisted game
but for reasons unknown to me
i havent been the same

was it something you did
was it something you said
whatever it was
has left my heart for dead

its so hard to love now
even though i try
i cant show emotion now
i cant even cry.

Im like a butterfly
but my wings are no more
you tore them out years ago
and left me on the floor.
