I used to think
I was reasonably strong.
Right until
You came along.

You tore down my wall
With just one look.
It felt like you knew me for centuries
You read me like a book.

The memories still linger
With other thoughts in my head.
What if I wasn't his,
But I was yours instead.

I dreamt big,
Bigger than I though it could.
You taught me how to
I never thought I would.

Now I'm getting my dream holiday,
It was our dream.
But it's not with you.
What do I do?

Every time I think about it
I break a little more inside.
But you broke me and left me,
Left me here to die.

It kills me slowly everyday,
The fact that I'll never hear you say,
"I love you Aysha,
And I'm here to stay"

Stay in my life,
That's all I ever asked,
Don't shut me out,
Especially not when I need you.

I need you
More than ever right now.
I need you to hold me up
When all I want to do is break down.

You're my biggest strength
But also my greatest weakness.
