But then she left

She used to love
But then she left

She used to call me every day
But now I'm lonely and bereft

She used to talk about me
with a glimmer in her eyes

But now when she sees me
All she does is sigh

She was so broken
She didn't know how to love

We used to go so well together
Fit like a hand in a glove

But now she barely speaks to me
And I honestly thought S H E would never be the one I would see the last of

I never knew a woman could ever break my heart
for men had always done the breaking
and the tearing apart
that left me empty like a shell and aching

But I cannot mourn the death of a friendship
that which held me so close
Feelings of inadequacy, wash over me, and I feel so morose

I gave that girl a part of me that I will never get back

She was the death of me
She was the start of me
She was the rhythm in my blues
She was the heart of me

But Alas, I acquiesce, I am no part of her, and she is now no part of me
