That day
Rebekah Johnson 2001 (Bountiful)
Stop to think
How hurt and broken
Your words left me
That day.
Wished for death to take me far away
That day.
Screaming for you,
I needed you then
That day.
Wished it never happened,
That it was a dream
That day.
You threatened me
And told me it was all a lie
That day.
I'll never be yours, you said.
While you're doing okay,
I'm still fighting.
The ache that consumes my heart
Doesn't understand an apology.
But it does stop to think
About that day.
