The day I lost you Is the day I made love to you through someone else Tears streaming down my eyes when I got the phone call But tired of being alone in my room crying over you I get up an get dressed in a zone A lover of mine someone I never cared for awaits for me outside my door Weak from slumber I climb into his truck slam the door and away we go My mind on everything but him I speak of my lost friend the one I missed He knew I was upset he came to cheer me up Having know idea that I was not crying for just a friend My love for you was so strong then There was nothing I would not have done for you But you left me alone when I needed you there the most Tears of the moon Making love to him was making love to you I held him in my arms and imagined you instead I caressed his skin but it was you Kissing him with my eyes closed afraid to wake up and not find you there When its over reality seaps back in I cannot reach you No matter who I may have given my love Its not you I quickly leave without looking back If you only knew the pain I went through Knowing I would never get this love from you I found someone else to replace you Doesnt mean my heart ever left you I do not need shine or wealth, just a pen and some paper for my health |

I'm sure so many other have been in this situation but it takes real courage to put into words the hurtful feelings for a lost love!!! Nice write. |
