In my heart I still love you,
yet in my heart I know I shouldn't.
My mind tells me I should go,
but my heart begs me to stay.

My words don't come easy,
since my inspiration was taken away.
I choke on the words I long to speak,
while knowing I must refrain.

As I sift through the ashes of a broken heart,
I find the smouldering remains of the fire
that once raged deep inside.
Rememberances of the love we once shared.

I know I must resurrect the remnants,
and rebuild this shattered heart.
I must continue my quest for happiness,
this long, lonely trek without you by my side.

As I begin this long journey back to reality,
always remember just one important thing.
You were loved by someone far, far away,
and that someone just happens to be me.
