Of everything that I gave
you still left.
Of everything you gave
you took it back.
Of every tear that ran from my face
you didn't turn back to
wipe them away.
Of every laugh that I gave,
a frown now takes it's place.
Time has slowed down,
I have never seen the clock move so slow.
I feel empty,
my heart wants to cry out.
In what?
In fear.
In isolation.
In grief.
In tears.
I'm afraid.
I no longer have the trust that you once gave.
Must we move on?
Can't we just pick up from where we left off?
You said no.
And now I understand
that there will no longer be those hands
to hold mine,
no longer the smile that made up mine,
no longer your love
that made my heart leap.
You trespassed on me.
And now that, I can see.
