Why did you leave me here?
Without you,alone.
What did you do to my heart?
Broken and torn.
Why did you promise me the world?
Impossible promises.
Did you think after harsh words I would just stop loving you?
Dark and cold,they pierced my heart.
Why did you just walk away?
I was always beside you.
You say "Can we just be friends?"
As if thats any better in the end.
Am I doing alright?
Yes,if you consider the struggle and the fight.
Can we try again?
I don't think I could ever let you back in.
So where does this leave us?
If you think about it,was there ever an "us" to be known?

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
