Why...

by Matthew Schut   Sep 25, 2008


I have my moments when I can make it
When I can actually put a smile on my face
People actually believe that I am finally happy
But they just don't realize this empty space

The space that you once fulfilled
A place deep within my heart
I feel lost and confused
And my life seems to be falling apart

I was never one to give my heart away
I always was afraid to get it torn in two
So no one knew what it was like to hold my heart
Until I finally gave my heart to you

How can I put a smile on my face
When I feel like I don't even know me anymore
How can I act like myself
When the other half has walked out the door

People knew me by knowing you
You were the other half of me
But now I am sitting here wondering
How is my life supposed to be

Where do I go, where do I turn
How can I tell anyone the feelings that I have for you
When you are the only one that will understand
I just really don't know what to do

Baby please just come back to me
Please just tell me that you want me too
I can't stand being away from us
And I want to tell you...I love you

    Thank you! I'm glad that you could relate. It's so hard...especially when the other just doesn't know and you don't know how to tell them...thanks for the comment!
