I have become so loveless since you left me

I gaze at the heart I poured out so lovingly

And now is empty.

It is the visage of who I am;

Vices I sought to fix it and yet nothing can

 

And yet I am the one who must suffer

The consequence, whilst you watch me

Torturing, staring from your fence

 

Silence is not an answer, but you will not speak

I gave you everything and more, but Trust was

A door you just would not let me through.

 

And now my dreams flood in hauntingly,

Reminding me of how you changed me

And how I made you so worthy;

More worthy than you ever deserved to be

 

Still I walk these streets believing

I will see your face again.

Until I damn this wishful thinking

And realise it is only a trick of the mind.

 

When in fact, I am lonelier than before:

Had I not met you, I would never have

Put everything on the line; surrendering

My logic and dignity all to make you mine

 

Perhaps then I would not have lost

My innocence, but now you are gone

And I’m struggling to overcome this.
