Broken

Days before I felt this coming
Days before I heard the humming
On the distant horizon I saw the storm brewing
And I sat racking my brain
And I felt the odds stacking with pain
As I knew the night would come
And your sun would set
And you’d be filled with this great regret
The life we live we shouldn’t do
The life we took has shaken you
The bond we share you no longer need
My love for you can no longer feed
The look in your eyes said it all
The sound of your voice is what made me fall
The tone of your gaze now switches
To glazed over and the day’s over
And my light’s done
Hence the darkness from 
Two lonely hearts now worlds apart
From the ones who made the beatings start
Flat lines no more I sing my haloed 7 lines
Now I’m left with only broken dreams
A broken bond, not one
But two broken ones
No more swans for my broken pond

No more poems to wish you
Only love poems that cry cause I miss you
And tears fall cause I insist you don’t turn back
Wishing for smiles to thank you
But only my sadness yanks you
Back to the reality of this day
Back to the sadness of the way
It hurts as my mind flirts
With ideas of death
The voice within myself
Says

Its my ego, not my heart that's broken...
