What were you – When your lips would part And incoherent words Would fall from your mouth? Where were you – When the sheets were tangled at my feet While his arms were laced around my frame And his breath smothered my thoughts? Who were you – When I would implore That you open up and help me understand The world you call your own? How were you – Able to let me fall from A ledge while you stood there Not even looking my way? When did you realize – That it was not me you wanted But the mere thought of me Which brought you to think That you were in love?

I'm lost tonight, drowning in my sorrows.
