Love Lost

scars that cover a still beating heart
still trying to find a way out of my head
I know you will never see past my faults
I have clouds hanging over my head 
wish I saw some silver linings
you will always know when life changes 
our love used to be dulcet 
know all I know to be is demure 
I used to have to fight for my rights
It is all over now 
I won't be restless anymore 
you were used to thinking you could destroy me 
with out even giving it a thought 
I was drowning in those waters so deep 
kept thinking is this how it was supposed to be 
I was suffocating please help me 
You used to be the star of my life 
but that was before 
what you did ended everything we had

The pain and sadness are deeply expressed in your poetic words. I could feel the emptiness as I read this today
