Never Again

Now your in front of me scared to death.
Waiting for what words will come out of my breath.
I softly whisper, I destroyed our way. 
I never thought life would feel like this, but something always kept telling me 
someday.
I remember a place hidden deep insdie the soul of mine.
A place that was once made for us, a place I could never define. 
I went to the place to find the truth beyond despair.
To figure out the surreptitious meaning behind the impairs.
I could of buried myself in undeniable regret.
But one thing I learned is love you never forget. 
I became my own brutal opponent, the one that tore our world down. 
I lost you in a bath of unforgettable tears, not sure where we did drown.
I know it took enough hurt to want to fix the heart I did break. 
I don't know if I can restore forever. 
I only I could bring back our days of together.
I know I promised you forever along time ago.
The I left you to fight life alone.
And all you heard from me was don't promise me anything you can't continue.
Now I am sure I can promise you one thing that is true.
Never again do I want to fall without you holding me. 
Never again do I want to experience life without we.
Never again do I want to love anybody but you. 
Never again do I want to forget about something so true.

The Ending

Look around you.
Look at everything you knew.
Can't you see half of yourself is in the past.
Everything you knew is a broken promise that didn't last. 
How come you pushed me aside. 
Don't you know how many tears I cried. 
I can't explain the pain I go through.
Now I know what it is like to live without you.

I tore down all you letters and pictures from my wall.
Your face, our life, no more recall. 
Now its just an empty view. 
I still ask myself why every day.
This is the first time in a long time, I got on my knees to pray.
I asked god to make sure your alright.
And that everything for you is at peace when you lay your head down at night. 

All I know there was a promise left shattered.
But now it doesn't matter. 
The truth really does break the heart.
Believe me, you tore mine apart.
I can't believe your living life without me on your side. 
The day you left is the day I died. 
Each day I wake up I fight back the tears.
I have not cried this hard in so many years.
