The pieces of our friendship,
Are breaking away, shard by shard,
My heart feels lost, I had no idea,
Losing you would be so hard.

The layers of our endless love,
Like paint they start to peel,
It hurts because I hadn't a clue,
How losing you would really feel.

I hope that youve somehow noticed,
That youre stillΒ my number one,
and now I know exactly,
How it feels to come undone.

No worries, no concerns, no fears,
Is what my mask should show,
Although losing you is killing me,
I don't want you to know.

Smile, laugh, get through the day,
Not a single tear I'll cry,
Just close my eyes, drift off to sleep,
Dont think about the word goodbye.

But whispers fill my head at night,
Disguised as memories,
Light and airy, floating still,
Will they ever cease?

Theres a hollow ache inside somewhere,
A hole thats been made anew,
This empty piece thats missing?
Thats where there once was you.

But little by little i understand,
I'm finally starting to see,
That in the process of losing you,
I'm actually finding me.
This was actually written about a friend not a boyfriend but I think it can apply to both situations, and even other situations i havent thought of.
