the wind blows away the intoxicating aroma of you
as you walk away from me
the space between my feet and yours
increases with every footstep
the space between my heart and yours
increases with every tear rolling down my face


you told me you loved me
but i know better
i know better
the words leave your mouth so easily
flowing
don't the lies hurt you?

did you stop to think,
i might love you
i might love you with every fiber of my being
i only want to hold you
and be with you through the night
till tomorrow shows itself
and the rays of light peek between the curtains
but thats not good enough for you...

the space between my heart and yours
increases with every tear rolling down my face

Tears here.  Heart ache.  From me, deep understanding.  

Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Gave my goosebumps I have felt this exact feeling before as most of us have.  With time the pain fades and is replaced with joy of a new love.

"the wind blows away the intoxicating aroma of you

the space between my feet and yours
increases with every footstep
the space between my heart and yours

This was an "oh my god" stanza.

Well done.

I must agree with Susan on the "oh, my god" stanza. Wonderful writing. Chris
