Across The Room...

Across the Room....

I look across the room,
and see you there,
and I can't help but stare....
just seeing you again,
and then suddenly I catch myself.

You look different,
not on the outside but on the inside...
you are different-
maybe it's just me....

When I look at you
my heart seems like it is going to explode,
at least what is left of it....
the rest is across the room,
at least I hope it is still with you-
since you are the one who took practically all of it,
except for the little bit I need to live.

But I wish you would have took that too,
because when you left-
I fell apart....
I mean what is the point,
my everything is gone....
why would I still want to live?

There must be a reason,
but who knows...
"everything always happens for a reason"
that's what everyone always says,
but if that's true:
what was the reason behind us?....
I'm starting to think-
maybe everything doesn't happen for a reason...

I thought I knew you better,
but I guess I didn't know you would do the unthinkable-
at least that's what it was to me....
you obviously thought different
or I wouldn't be sitting here typing this,
I wouldn't be here wishing you back,
I wouldn't be broken on the inside,
I wouldn't have nearly this much pain,
I wouldn't be alone,
and finally....
I wouldn't be sitting here crying over you....

But I guess we both went out separate ways,
and by now we both have moved on....
well maybe you have,
but as for me I'm still holding on,
just waiting for the day to come-
if it ever does....
and if it doesn't eventually I will have to let go,
but until eventually comes-
I'm just going to sit here and
wish for me and you to become an "us" again....
but why waste my time,
hey if "u" never come back to me,
then I guess I will just be the "s" for now....
