When I Think of You, I Wear a Frown:

Marriage was meant to be a partnership
Love was meant to be everlasting
Friendship was meant to be trustworthy.

But since I have been with you
I feel as though my world has been torn in two.

I am like a tree that bears no leaves in autumn
I am like a bird without wings
I am like flowers that blossom in summer without fragrance or color
I am lost, confused and alone.

You make my world blue.
