The saddest d a Y of my life

by Kristen   Dec 23, 2004


I'm not sure what it'd be like
if i had you back, here with me
i wonder what I'd feel, how I'd deal
if things would be the way they used to be
i can almost imagine it all now...
the glare thats in your eyes
no, it doesn't look the same
your touch, once magical to me
now only brings me pain
the way you talk, the things you say
full of hesitation, outlined in doubt
everything that seems not the same
are all the things i was without
i feel like a stranger to you
like somehow, somewhere, i don't belong
and i always thought this would feel right
but now it only seems all wrong
my heart sits heavily, beats irrationally
inside of my chest
i try to eat, i take a bite
but i cannot finish the rest
i feel sad and confused despite
for all that i wished for
who knew it would turn out
that i didn't want that anymore
i only feel like crying now, I'm holding back my tears
your questioning eyes ask me why
but i cannot speak, my heart feels so weak
that i think that i just might die
it hurts so bad to have you here
but not have it be the same
still, the origin of all my tears
are only mine to blame
someone else has been here, in my place
and thats who belongs here now
my presence doesn't mean what it used to
and that i simply cannot allow
my eyes dart back and forth
a moments time passes, you catch my glare
from a distance you know what's wrong
still your heart knows that i still care
i gather up my things
and i quickly dry my face
looking at the pictures on the wall
i am reminded I'm replaced
i give you one last look, our eyes lock
i slowly turn and leave, without saying a word
and although nothing has been said
its understood it's all been heard
all is moving beneath my feet
though i feel as if I'm standing still
i walk a little further, i look back...
i feel as if i can't..but i know i will
the past is the past, whats done is done
i could never do it all again
what the present brings could never be
as special as what we had then
and it hurts to walk away from you
but it'd hurt so much more to stay
you know its wrong, we've both moved on
and we can't go on living or loving either way.
