Do Me A Favor

Do me a favor,

Give me your ear,

If only for just a second.

Let me tell you of the pain,

I have experienced,

And of which I hope,

You should never experience again.

The pain of losing your love,

Is the pain of losing your other half,

Of losing all meaning in your life.

You lose everything in your heart,

Except for the hole, where they resided,

For such a short time,

Yet they took so much from you,

They took your abilities,

To speak, to hear, to eat, to live,

To lose is to die,

Just a little, every day.

Never mess up, or they will leave,

Never to return.

They will leave you changed,

Never to return to yourself,

Only to have to rebuild,

In a new image.
