Darkened Heart

I remember the days where we were together

You making my laugh at every little thing

I couldn’t imagine my life without you I’d say

But I could have never guessed id end up here without you

 

You took me here when we first met

I still remember you spilling the popcorn on me

You turned red while I laughed and that was when I knew

That moment led me to believe you were my true love

 

Years went by just you and me being happy

We traveled the world and embraced its beauty

Hand in hand we could conquer any obstacle

But now things are different without you here…

 

The knock on my door was something I always dreaded

But there it was, louder and more painful than I could imagine

My heart sank to my knees as I broke into a million tears

Crying in the cuff of the jacket that used to be yours

 

I told myself you’d be back, that you’d always be back

Now, here stands reality, my love is gone

My heart is no longer part of me

It perished along with you from my life

 

So here I stand my love, at the place of our memories

Nothing feels the same nor looks any different

I have accepted that I will never be the same

And my life has fallen into a pit of despair
