Words are more powerful than we will ever understand

"But darling if you're hurting, please just take my hand."

That's all I needed to hear when you tore me apart.

It's not a matter of when I will heal but rather where do I even start?

People always say, "words can never hurt me,"

I guess we can agree to disagree.

They must have never heard their world whisper "I don't love you anymore."

Watched the one they love walk right out the door.

But maybe it wasn't those words that cut me deepest

Maybe it's the fact you left me at my weakest.

And possibly what we want to say is more important than what is spoken.

All I know is you left me here,

Speechless and broken.
