To My Love

You’ve broken my heart
You’ve broken my soul
You used your hugs and kisses
And all of the lies that you told
The promises that you made to me
Are now dust in the wind
Look at all of my broken pieces
How can I ever love again
I have nothing left to give
I have no love in my heart to share
It’s a hollow, empty shell
A home that’s walls are bare
Nothing lives here now
Cobwebs are forming thick
No flame can ever burn 
In a candle without a wick
I hope you’re happy now
I hope this pain you’ll never know
Because now I live day to day
Until God says it’s my time to go
