Untouched by Emotion

I remember when I said I love you
And you said thank you, so coldly
My eyes grew blurry, and I reeled
Nothing left of heartfelt emotions
I was in so much pain I glowed
But you didn't care
You just know, all that's real
I wasn't worth the time
Nor the investment
To believe my words
To you I was a stain, a curse
So I'll let you finally decide
I am finished
My wounds are sealed
With scars
Pour yourself another glass of wine
So you can feel something
Standing above this sort of thing
The idea of love is beneath you
And you stand above it all
Staring down at the peasants
Who might possibly feel
