My Soul Alone

If needing you now is a weakness
Then I have never been strong
It's taken awhile for me to speak this
But it is how I have felt all along
I'll love you as long as you'll let me
Even after that I will love you still
I realize your heart now only regrets me
And I regret that's how I've made you feel
I know how badly I hurt you now
I've become greatly familiar to the same pain
When I think of you though,I still smile
If only I could make you do the same
My darling when you went away
The mirror of my soul was shattered in half
What I had taken from me that day
Was the most important thing I have ever had
Saying my heart was left in two
That would be a lie
You see,you took all of it with you
I am completely empty inside
This life of mine is now barren as a desert
I'm now unable to see images of beauty
I have only my pain,only my hurt
My future now just uncertain mystery
Love is like the brightest and fairest of all flowers
Most often it fades within the time it takes to bloom
These words that I speak,I know they lack the power
The power and strength it would take to return me to you
This struggle of mine to win this love of yours
Is a battle I know I fight in vain
I know your heart beats for me no more
I'm also sadly aware that it never will again
But yet there is still no pursuit more worthy
Then to try and remind your heart of what we once shared
No single thought,action or deed
Could ever make me forget how much I care
The most cherished hopes within my heart
Along with all the desires burning within my mind
Fall victim to the hurtful truth of us being apart
And the memory of you walking out of my life
