How

How

How can I try to get over you,
When you’re always on my mind?
How do I even start to forget,
All the times you were so kind?

How do you expect me to wake each day,
And try not to begin to cry?
How am I going to smile again.
When inside I want to die?

How do I manage to cope without you?
You’re the person who kept me alive,
How do I hold my world together?
It was you who helped me survive.

How am I meant to love another,
When you’re imprinted into my heart?
How can I start to pick up the pieces,
When it was you I loved from the start?

How on earth can I look at you?
And see you every day,
How can I stop you from seeing me hurt?
I can’t pretend I’m okay.

How do you expect me to stop the tears,
And start to let you go?
How do you expect me to start afresh,
When you know I miss you so…
