She owns my heart

In present tense
That statement doesn't hold

Back step by step
I watched her fade
As if I were a ghoul

Where are you going?
I called her out
But not a word she said

Just fear of loving
In her eyes
I wonder what I'd done

In silent shouts
We exchanged looks
A mystery unexplained

Till finally she
Cleared the air
And left me all alone

One's lonely
Too cold
Trees sway
Forlornly

I counted the steps
She took with her
But they weren't the only things
She did
With her my heart had gone away
And without I lay in daze
