What went wrong?

by Ashley   Feb 22, 2006


An empty heart,
A broken soul.
Memories burned,
I feel so cold.

At an empty seat,
I stare.
From across the room,
Our song blares.

What went wrong?
Will I ever know?
Will I ever be able
To let go?

I know this sounds familiar.
I've said this everyday
Since you disappeared.
Do you feel the same way?

Dry tears
Pour down my cheeks.
This has been going on
For 19 weeks.

Why do I keep hanging on?
What am I waiting for?
Why can't I forget about you?
Why am I staring at the floor?

Why do I
Put myself through this?
Why can't I
Return to bliss?

Maybe because
You were my bliss.
You made me whole,
From that first kiss.

The kiss was a dream though,
An unconscious wish.
But your face
Is what I miss.

I don't miss the hurt,
All my pain.
Why can't I think of that
Instead of us in the rain?

I wish things were different.
I wish I could change everything.
But I can't forget my heart,
And it says you are its king.

I know,
That can't be right.
And the night you come back,
My heart will be full of fright.

Why will it be skurred?
Cuz of all the pain its been through.
But I'm stuck to you
Like paper to glue.

If only this had been different.
If only this never happened.
I'm no good to anyone,
Even myself I can't defend.

I just wish for a higher power
To come down and save me.
But what good is wishing that,
When nothing, even up there, loves me?

I'm just a lonely girl
Wishing for hope.
Will it ever come?
Uh, nope.
