The Heart or the RoseA Poem by Renette Hollow
I don't know what I should do
I don't know how to face you When all I feel is betrayal and pain I'm losing all of my control again My world is slipping through my fingers And this empty feeling still lingers No one can fill this hole in my heart This is what I was frightened of from the start. You said you would always be there But I think now you don't care For you left me here, alone and lost I don't feel like it's worth the cost Nearly six months I spent by your side Now you're gone, I'd rather I had died Having lost you the way I did Was there anything I could have said? I don't feel like drawing breath any longer When this feeling of depression grows stronger And I don't know if I want the Heart or the Rose I don't know if it was the right thing I chose I want to turn Time's clock backwards Back before my heart was nothing but shards Back to when I was safe in your embrace But you're leaving now, should I give chase? Everything's falling apart because of me And I'm in such pain now, don't you see I can't live without your love, without you How could you tell me you love me, too When you're about to tell her yes I know that I made everything a mess But please, please, I'm begging you, Say that you want to me with me, too.
