Deep Rooted Pain

Browsing through my photo file
Gazing upon your face 
My thoughts travelling to the past
Your pain through illness
The time we spent together during
How close we have become
As trees bloomed
Our love blossomed too

How could you?
Spin this yarn of lies
To conceal your face 
Still I yearn to know the real truth
We were once so close
I didn’t realize
 Just how much you hurt me
How much I still loved you

From the depth of my being
Uncontrollable deep rooted sobs emerged 
How do I explain why and from where?
The tears come
If only you knew
I once felt you with oceans between
But now I only feel my own pain
