Love

When we were together

I was happy

I gave you my heart

You took it

Then you left me

Now there is

Emptiness inside of me

Caused by you

Leaving me

A gap

I am incomplete

Look at what

You have done

You have made this man

A wreck

There is pain

Pain like I have

Never felt before

In this gap

Which used to house

My heart

What use is a heart?

If it breaks so easily

And so readily?

They say it is

"Better to have love and lost

Than never to have loved at all"

But they never

Mentioned the pain

You were crying

When you said

It was over

You might be crying now

Like I am

But your tears will dry

When you find someone else

But how can I

Dry my eyes?

How can I find

Someone who will fill my life

As you once did?

Find someone who

Will fill the void

That exists in my heart
