Blunt

You are my safe place on a rainy day

Never would I lie to damage your trust,
Id believe every single word you say
Still you manage to leave me in the dust.
The piercing shrapnel hit my very soul
Each second everlasting echoed pain
You no longer kept me warm with your wool,
Expected days with you using your cane
You fully complete all my hopes and dreams
I could say all your love is rather rare,
Only now hope things dont fall through the seams
Amongst others that would seem to be fair.
All released with the emergency brake
The reason my heart continues to ache.
