Party Of One
My lips began to tremble,
And then my voice began to shake.
From my eyes, tears did fall;
Inside, I feel my heart break.
The pain this is causing is harsh;
It has dropped me down on my knees.
Through pain and tears, I beg you
Not to do this to me, please.
The pain growing in my chest
Has now started to spread.
I still don't believe I heard
Those damning words you said.
It sounded as though you said
You didn't love me and you're done,
That our party of two we've enjoyed
Will now only be a party of one.
To you I begged and I pleaded
The whole time as you started to pack.
Then there was that look you gave,
Confirming you weren't coming back.
