Stand tall

In a world of love and heartache iam left on the shelf. they say I mean a world to them but their actions tell a different tale but still I hold on hoping they will change. their eyes light up for someone else their smile now so cold I'm left in the dark,my heart growing old. I thought we had a love that would never fade,but now I'm just a memory,a shadow in their shade. I've given them my all,my heart and soul but they've given me nothing but a role in their lives,a role of a friend,a mere pawn I'm tired of being played ,tired of being worn,so I will stand talk ,I will brush off my tears,I'll find a heart that beats for me alone and I will leave behind this love that's never known.
