Only she may set me free

It's happened to me once again,

another sleepless night without her.

I figured with enough help it would stop,

but something inside me won't let me sleep.

Is it not hearing her breath next to me,

or maybe the dangerous grip she is known to have?

Could it be how when I'd talk to her,

she would mumble softly with her voice I grew to love?

I've missed it all from day one,

shouldn't have left, instead talked it out.

Now I lay here awake and forever alone,

I've tried to make things right, yet I can't even do that.

For she had decided what she wanted and didn't tell,

so I was lead to believe in a false hope.

a false hope is more devastating than a lie,

for when I found I'd never be that one again I truly wished I would die.

I entrusted my heart and soul to my one and only,

now I'm but a shell of who she once knew.

Imprisoned forever I will always be,

Only she may set me free.
