Once I was whole
Happy and strong
Secure in your love
Then it was gone
You walked away
Ripped me apart
Yet still I yearned
Drifting alone
trying to heal
This wound so deep
I hear your call
Unable to refuse
I go to you
My thoughts confused
Words, angry and hot
Emotions, the same yet not
The Bond, still there, aching with need
Desperately I try
Again you leave
To return once more
My soul cut deeper
your words pure hate
Yet still I remain
I ask myself why
wishing I could deny
Continuing this circle
Cursing my need
Cursing my soul
Cursing this thing called love
Wishing, for all that I am, that it had never been woken
Never to feel
ahhhh such bliss
The tears
scalding within thier trail
My heart ripped in two
aching, wanting, needing
Finally it eases
You are gone for all time
Life goes on
I move forward
the urgency eases
Yet the love remains..
The hope, for the future
a maybe unseen
If only, if only
I do not live within it
I continue to grow, to heal
Yet the hope remains, if only
maybe someday
