You told me you're leaving and oh it hurt...it tore my heart but I don't understand how it can hurt when I've done nothing but wish you gone for the last year. So why does it suddenly feel like I've lost...everything? Isn't this just what I'd been hoping for? Why do I cry when you can't see? Why do I touch you when you are sitting there? Why does your smile mean so much? And your laughter even more? I never stopped loving you. I just stopped believing in us. I stopped believing we could make things work. Make things better...not even that just just be happy I guess. I think I have forgotten how... ...to be happy that is. You told me you're leaving and it tore my heart apart. I want to say don't go but I don't know how... ...not anyway you would believe. You told me you're leaving Please, please don't go. |

Ah, been there... It is hard in that sort of situation to follow your heart. I think that if you let your heart do the talking, it will come out right, because in the end, you might regret not trying even more.
