I find myself on the far side of the moon
Wandering around on circular paths
Your memory follows me like a shadow in the night
A fixed mark of affection and confusion
You once held me tight within your arms
And for a little while I was content
Until I lost my breath
I asked you "Why?"
You told me it's because you love me.
I felt my heart slowly fall to pieces
And watched you collect them over the years
Carelessly placing them in your back pocket
So selfish and callous were your actions
Had you forgotten about words once said?
For the longest time you made me believe things would change
I waited.
Overtime I had nothing left to give
Seasons changed, yet my feelings remained the same
Empty.
My heart was yours
Everywhere you went you took it with you
Toyed with its pieces like a puzzle
Watched its colour fade
Its segments disperse into the cold night
Until there was nothing left,
You set off in search for more
And left me with a void beneath my chest.
