Set You Free

by Megan   Dec 10, 2005


Tears on my pillow,
pain in my heart.
I'm trying to be strong,
but my world just fell apart.
I had such high hopes,
for what we could be.
But you up and left,
and took all that away from me.
I wanted a future with you,
a life filled with joy.
But you proved that your are nothing,
but a immature little boy.
You held my heart,
and the key to my soul.
With you in my life,
I felt completely whole.
You promised me forever,
a never ending love.
Now all of that has be shattered,
with problems we couldn't rise above.
I thought we were strong,
that we'd make it through it all.
But I found out differently,
now that I'm feeling the fall.
I built my world around you,
and you let it tumble.
The pain inside is so strong,
it causes me to get weak and stumble.
I know this isn't what you want,
somewhere deep inside your heart.
But this is what you asked for,
so now we're torn apart.
My nights are very lonely,
my days are full of pain.
My heart has been shattered,
as our love blew up in flames.
This isn't what I wanted,
but I didn't have a choice.
You walked out of my life,
leaving nothing but the echo of your voice.
So now I sit here lonely,
hoping you'll open your eyes.
But it doesn't look so hopeful,
all I can do is cry.
I know it doesn't help,
it won't make you come back to me.
You want to be let go,
so now I must set you free.
