A broken heart is–

a poet's greatest treasure.

Before you, I was high spirited,  
carefree and somewhat careless.

You entered into my heart,
as I left it guardless.

The words you spoke,
left me speechless.

Your kindness,
made me selfless.

Your love,
made me breathless.

My love for you
was flawless.

Yet, one day you left me,
leaving me clueless.

Your departure,
left me helpless.

My every attempt to forget you,
turned out to be useless.

The voice in my heart keeps asking,
how can a person be so heartless?

Don't you know?
Can't you tell?
Without you, I am lifeless.

There never was any love,  
only your imagination
that created it.

You built walls of suspicion,
turned friend into foe,
for a love that never was.

Your own doubts
have made your heart fragile,
turned you bitter.

A chapter of life has ended

but the book of life is not yet complete

it's time to open a new chapter

and see what it unfolds...

You are gone
why do I still search?

I look at the stars in the sky
are you amongst them now?

No, you won't be there
It's a quiet place, you won't like

I wonder where you are
hope in someplace
where you can spread your laughter.

When truth and lie collide

only truth survives.

When time was hard

you pulled me through.

Now that death has taken you away

who do I look to?

Gone too far

Gone too soon

You are always missed.
