When Only One Believes

You break down and cry as you watch him go; for you never thought he'd ever do so. And you're still struggling to understand why: as you watch him go, you break down and cry. You feel your heart break the moment he leaves: Love's not enough: when only one believes. The joy in your heart morphs into an ache, the moment he leaves, you feel your heart break. Tears start to fall when he walks out the door, saying nothing feels the same as before. And feeling scared that he will never call, when he walks out the door, tears start to fall. There is no hope when all you feel is pain, afraid that you'll never see him again. And you've no idea if you can cope, when all you feel is pain, there is no hope.
