It's Over
Even saying 'It's over'
He looked beautiful
As he gave me back his key
I could smell his aftershave
As he walked away
With the central part of me
Acting like strangers
Brushing past each other
With discomfort and aching
Knowing, we, us
What we were, meant
Was now lost in the lives we were breaking
The times he'd held me
Through traumatic echoes of life
Promising he'd never leave my side
Suddenly felt like lost wishes
I'd made as a little girl
All the while crying inside
I wanted to run to him
Beg him to forgive me
All I'd said, All I'd done
But knowing in my heart
He can no longer see me
Through the sadness I have become
Everytime I said I was sorry
Everytime I swore
Everything I tried to do
The black dog beat me down
'You're not good enough for him'
Thats why he's leaving you....
