why

Unkept Promises.
Shattered Dreams.
Broken Heart,
Beyond repair.
Desolation and Despair.
Why did you have to throw everything away,
After all the miracles we shared?
I drown in a sea of tears.
Memories vivid,
Eat at my heart with a longing.
Everyone and everything
Whispers your name to my soul.
Why can't I stop thinking of you?
Emptiness consumes me.
I ache for your arms around me and for
This sense of worthlessness to be done away with.
Like a vulture, you ripped out my heart
And you left me to die.
So why do I still so effortlessly, hopelessly
Love you?
Lately I've been waking with tears in my eyes
Screaming your name,
Reaching desperately for you.
I try hopelessly to move forward,
Yet days seem like years without you.
Why can't I go on without you?
My soul screams for its other half
My lips cry for your kiss
My hands ache to hold yours
My eyes weep to look into the mirrors of your soul
My heart is broken, battered, shattered and torn
In your hands, still.
Why?
