How Could You

How could the arms that once held me with such a gentle touch, leave me with such a cold embrace? Why do the hands that used to reach and tenderly touch my face, now pull away from me with such disgrace? Why do the lips that once kissed me so passionately, now barely brush against mine? How did the eyes that used to hold love for me, so easily lose their shine? Why did you once hold me so close to only push me away? How could you say that you love me if you weren’t going to stay? How could you give me all your love and devotion, only to look at me now and show no emotion? How could the heart that was once filled with so much love for me, now have nothing left to feel inside? How do I go from being your only thought, to never crossing your mind? How could the one I loved walk out of my life? How could you leave me without even saying goodbye? How could the one who made me feel so alive, now leave me here alone to die? This poem is from my book titled Windows of The Heart available on Amazon and Kindle. My pen name is Amanda Carroll Kinzer
