What Next

I feel you slipping away With each moment of each day, You went back to her And suddenly I wasn't so sure Of anything anymore, You had closed that door. I kept reopening scars, Watching windows in passing cars, Hoping you'd be back And that this broken crack In my heart would be Fixed and I could once again be free. But I always hear You're happy, I shouldn't interfere, Do you know The hurt you put me through, The pain never leaves, You were in and out of my life like a breeze. Now I'm left in the dark, Still trying to find my own spark, Let it shine, let it shine, I used to back when you were mine, But nothing lasts forever, I forgot that until I realized you meant never. And the stars still burn bright, What a pretty little picture of the night, You used to hold me so tight, Pushed away all my fears and fright, But maybe I was dreaming, And now I'm left with tears and the screaming. You promised forever, You were so damn clever, I was naive and a fool, Your intentions were cruel, I don't know how I ever fell But now I hope you're happy I'm unwell. It's not easy letting go, I try to let it out and flow Like a racing current, But all I feel is broken and bent Out of shape and out of hand, And now this broken emptiness I can't stand....
