But I Did

He left me
Don't say "you'll get over it."
I really won't
It hurts so much.

Don't you see I don't only want him?
Can't you see I need him?
I do need him
I want him, I crave him, I need him.

I need him like I need air
Do you know what happens when someone has no air?
They slowly die...
Part by part, day by day.

Then when that place dies
It slowly wastes away to nothing
Blown askew by the breeze
Gone forever, never to be found again.

As time passes
There eventually will be nothing left
Just a small note reading
"Oh baby...but I did love you."
