The birds, I can no longer hear them sing.
What happened to my laughter?
My eyes, they no longer sparkle.
Instead they are decorated with dark circles around them.
What happened to me?

Was it not yesterday laughter bubbled inside me.
And now the happiness that lay within me illuminated with a dark cloud.
A dagger sits in the very place were your name was engraved on my heart.
What happened to me?

I try to smile but my eyes refuse to sync with my lips.
Instead a flood is released.
A flood of emotions slowly trickles down my cheeks.
I wish it would rain so no one notices.
I want to walk in the rain just like we used to
But instead of you my shadow is my companion
What happened to me?

Inside I’m slowly dying a slow painful death
A death full of regret.
Was it not me who sang a song of no regrets?
I preached a life never ending love.
What happened to me?

LOVE! a word I loath.
How dare you?!
But is it really love to blame.
They say love is patient,
Love is kind
I believe it because I know love didn’t wrong me
You did!
That is why even after all this I know my love will never die
But I can no longer love you the same.
Because my love for you has died.
That is what happened to me.
