As the rain falls
It's downpour masking my tears
I can't help but remember that you said forever
Your voice echoing relentlessly in my mind
Your kiss, your touch, your breath at my neck
Hidden by darkness, we steal a magic moment
Someone calls, we pretend not to hear
Wishing this could go on forever
Whispering, so as not to be heard
Then silence that crackles with our connection
Afraid to speak, afraid to break the spell that we've cast
Our own special brand of magic
I see you so clearly when I close my eyes
Hoping for sleep that refuses to come
I hear your voice again, telling me it will all be okay
That we belong together
Suddenly, the pieces of me that you put together
After so long of being torn apart
Any shred of happiness you had brought to my life
Is ripped from me, my chest aching.
My battered, broken heart that you so tenderly sewed back together
Has been ripped from me by your hands
The hands that held me so many times
The hands that I once clutched so dearly
So scared to let go, so scared to lose you
Willing to give up everything, for you alone
My heart, my soul, my renewed laughter
The reason for my tears,
Tears that, like the rain, never seem to end;
This familiar feeling of abandonment
Why can't I shrug it off this time?
Grasping the only conclusion that makes sense,
I love you. More than myself, more than life
You are; were, my reason for existence
Now I have nothing.
Smoke curls towards the sky
From the fire that burns away any shred of you
Wishing I could burn away the image of you
That seems branded into my very core.
Perhaps I will forget you, perhaps I won't imagine
That you could ever come back
That you could ever love me as I love you
I am numb to the fact that you ever existed
I will forget you entirely,
but these eyes will pierce your soul for eternity.
