Reaching for something
but not knowing what
wanting to love you
but deep wounds you cut.
It may not be surface
It’s more than skin deep
as I hold all the pain
you no longer keep.
I’m drowning, please help
you have the key.
Pick up your lifesaver
and throw it to me.
I know you won’t save me
I need not to try
but when I remember us
I feel the need to cry.
My heart is still beating
the pulse like waves
approaching the beach
remembering the paths we paved.
You do not understand
the level of love I hold
but you walked away
leaving me in the cold
and I begged you to listen
I wanted to yell
but the look on your face
I could already tell
we were done.
I couldn’t fight
for two years
I tried with all my might
but you looked me in the eye
and as cold as could be
said the story you were writing
no longer included me.
So here I am alone
wishing our hearts still beat as one
having to accept the face
that everything we have is gone.
