Bereft

With such hurt in my heart
You touch me.
And I struggle to hold back the tears.
Inside feels like thunder,
Paralyzed by fear.

I wonder what will happen?
Wish it was like before.
It's not the same.
The same anymore.

We built bridges that are falling down
Before our very eyes.
And I weep, weep in the darkness
Because I can see why.

I delve into the distance,
I see a rocky future to come.
You say that you love me
My feelings towards you remain numb.

Don't you know that I'm tired?
So god damn tired of it all.
Fading from the arguing
And watching our side fall.

You sidestep my needs
So you can meet your own.
You're tearing me to pieces
And no longer feel like home.

You've left me feeling bereft
With black anger in my soul.
You used to be my everything,
The other half that made me whole.

Now I just want to run
To get up and walk away.
But don't bother arguing
Because there's nothing left to say.
