Breaking up is hard to do

You broke my heart and walked out of my life, 
I didn’t know loving you would come with a price. 
Now your gone and I can't think straight, 
You consume all of me, frozen in time alone I wait. 
What is it that keeps me here feeling this way, 
Why can't I be like you and go on with my day. 
Does this mean I care a lot more about you than you do for me? 
It seems as so as you’re the only one who's free 
I try so hard to stop the thoughts in my head 
I hate to say it but sometimes i would rather be dead. 
I can’t get you out of my head, you’re in everything I do 
Shouldn’t I be able to move on and do things like you. 
As you can see you were gone when I first started to write this 
I was thinking of us, and all that I would miss. 
You ignored every message; you said you no longer wanted to try 
I did not understand, I needed to know why. 
Days before that you asked me to be your wife, 
Changed your mind now you want me out of your life. 
Every day is battle and every night is a fight 
Should I just give up and walk away, give him what he wants, maybe I just might  
Only this evening there is no battle to be won 
This shouldn’t be happening I know im not the one 
Walking through my door with a bag in your hand 
I can’t help wonder if coming back was part of your plan. 
There is this feeling in the pit of my stomach just won’t go away,
I ask myself is there more to the story but maybe he is too scared to say. 
Is my mind getting the best of me, can it be playing tricks 
Ugh I don’t know what to believe, it is truly making me sick 
You’re the only one I want and my feelings are real and true,
I hate to ask but can I say the same for you?  
I hate wondering if there is someone else who has caught your eye 
Someone else that played a part in why you told me goodbye 
All I need to know is that there is no reason for me to pout 
Can you please just put my mind at ease and erase all the doubt.
