21. Hopeful
I wake up
Once again I feel the pain in my chest
Like something is missing
Like I am drowning.
I wake up
Once again I feel the pain in my chest
Like something is missing
Like I am drowning.

The little woman on the left
the one upon my shoulder,
tells me I should guard my heart.
She wants me to make it colder.

When you left,
I immediately deleted your number and pictures
and pulled our memories from the wall.
This is my strength.
I ask, why did you want to damage me?
My aching heart felt it all with blunt force.
So sad how you acted out savagely.
What's even worse is you had no remorse.
Moving on was
never meant to be easy.
It will hurt, it will be painful,
it will be exhausting,
The earth spins like a rolling ball.
Stars shine bright then fade away.
Darkness melts and turns to light.
The sunrise starts another day.
Can I really love anything?
My home, my life, the fantasy?
What trouble will it bring,
If I can't love anything?
There is a time to love
And a time to forget
A time to get rid of
And a time to close set
Today I will leave
And without a fair trade.
I don't care if this hurts you.
It was your bed you made.
The looks, the heat
Every smile, so sour, so sweet.
I had known you made me complete.
Everything I needed, I never wanted more,
Your name is just a name now.
Memories no longer rush back,
pouring through my body,
flooding my mind, drowning my
What the eye does not see, the heart does not grieve for...
But when the truth comes out, it will always hurt more.
Blinded by love, I failed to see how much of a jerk
You really were to me.
Just one more look to remember you by.
One more kiss before we say goodbye.
Just one more smile to remember your charms
while caressing you with loving arms.
I still remember the moment we met
The time we shared, I'll never regret
That summer in the sun we spent together
I can only hope you'll always remember
You were like a shining light
Into the darkness of my life
I was taken back by the way you smiled
I knew from the start you'd always have my heart.
It's done and it's over
I'm through with misery
No more sadness
No more you and me
Even if it's hard for me
To let you free
I'll do it for you
So that you'll not be lonely
The intentions are real
But the truth is untold,
Patiently awaiting the lies to unfold.
Her heart shatters with the thought of his touch.
To everything there's a time and season
Time to laugh and to weep for good reason.
A season for living, to find true love
And a time to dance with angels above...
Let them miss you.
Let them wonder what wild joy you’re chasing,
why you didn’t think to invite them along.
Let them hear your laughter from afar,
