My Breaking Heart

You don't know if you're happy,
but you don't want me to cry.
I lie here in silence
with your arms around me.

Why am I lying beside you?
I suddenly feel cold.
Feelings of safety are stripped away,
leaving me behind, alone and vulnerable.

I wish I knew what you want
that I don't have.
How can you be happy?
Only when you're away from me?

My love for you is in my heart, body and soul.
You feel as if it's unfair to me
if you cannot find these emotions in yourself,
so you let me go.

Tears pour down my cheeks
as you hold my heart in your hands.
You support it so gently,
yet it still breaks.
