What You Used To Be

by Lauren   May 25, 2006


You were the warmth in my heart,
the sparkle in my eye.
You were the giggle in my laugh,
and the radiance of my smile...
The shine in my hair,
and the color of my personality.
You were the reason I went to bed at night,
and why I got up in the morning.

But now you're gone,
and my heart has turned cold.
My eyes are dead and dim.
You're the reason why my laugh hasn't been heard,
and why my smile is non-existent.
My hair no longer shines with beauty,
and my personality is now my weakest quality.
I no longer go to bed at night,
and I wish to never awaken.

You're the one who finally made me realize,
why I am the one always worth leaving.
