My   life    is    staccato
Living    by   each   solitary   beat  
Every   memory   I   have   is   sharp

When you came you brought melody,
You paused my loneliness with harmony,
When I was with you my life moved rhythmically.


But bar by bar you beat me down

Arguments began to repeat:
Inevitably we fell out of tune,
And as it always does the music ends.
