New Veins

I fear this world has moved on without me Don't leave me Still tethered to the past days That always seemed to be A brighter shade of red I feel the vein collapsing Yet I tear old wounds Knowing that they'll never heal A familiar pain To remind myself There is something left to feel The scars become new veins Learned to live with a shattered heart And call it healed while I stay so far Away from anything close to love It's safer to be alone I thought the hardest thing to hear was that you didn't love me anymore Until you said that you didn't know if you ever really did Finding no relief in lonely broken sleep Maybe some day I'll mean something to someone
