NUMB

by Lost and forsaken   Aug 15, 2008


Sweet tears
roll down my cheeks
staining
the single sheet
of eight and a half by eleven
note book paper
it declares that you love me
really you do?
then why am i left here
without you
you drive away
as i die inside
later on the phone rings
your voice at the other end
you ask if i understand
i wish i were dead
but i simply nod and mumble yes
you were my everything
my reason to live
now im left here
while your with him
is it alex, or maybe chris
no i was wrong this time its ryan
do you think hes the one
if so thats great
but i want you to know
that rachel for me
your second to none
i would have walked
a thousand miles
just to tell you i love you
would die a thousand deaths
to keep you from harm
i know its been 8 months
since that cold winter night
ive tried to love again
baby its true
but it just doesnt feel right
like im cheating on you
so i guess im alone
in this world you left
you say to never give up
on someone
you think about every day
but rachel
i swear to you
i havent given up
im still here and alone
two hundred and fourty days later
braving the snow
the ice and the pain
still waiting for you

    Goodness nick, that's a wonderful display of such heartache. life's a conundrum, and your right, first love's usually never remain. they hurt the most but they teach the greatest of lessons. i liked this stanza the most
    "ive tried to love again
    baby its true
    but it just doesnt feel right
    like im cheating on you"
