Should Have Stayed

Should Have Stayed

A Poem by jburic09032

To see you turn/your back on me
To see you quit/to see you leave
It breaks my heart/how this could be
The end of all/my hopes and dreams


All those months/all those years
Through all the laughs/through all the tears
I fell for love/surrendered my fears
Now I scream in pain/but no one hears


My whole life, was bound to you
Joined together/our passions grew
So much to plan, so much to do
I can't believe this/it can't be true


Our vows, our oaths/have you forgot?
Through the good and bad/you promised not
To leave, forsake/when it hurts a lot 
You should have stayed/you should have fought


Don't give up!/Don't walk away
Our love was real/or was it fake
Was it all a lie/what truths remain
Why can't we talk, why can't you stay


Love is precious/Love it kind
All these memories/running through my mind
This love is amazing, the greatest find
I can't believe/you'd leave it behind


What am I to do/as I sit here alone
I wait and pray/by the phone
But it's just me now/in this home
Left here to live/on my own


It was so perfect/a work of art
But our life is over/and won't restart
The tears come/from a broken heart
What once was whole, now is torn apart
