The Man I Once Knew

by TaKe Me As I Am   Oct 30, 2006


I'm lost without you near me
your touch I miss so
my mind is in a constant battle
as to how I let you go

You said things weren't working
the magic in our kiss disappeared
and in an instant, the day arrived
the day I so truly feared

You said that you were leaving
it was another woman who had your heart
but never had I imagined
that our shared soul would part

You kissed me on the cheek
as a tear escaped from my eye
I pushed you away from me
refusing to hear you utter yet another lie

And just then our 6-month old daughter began to scream
as you turned and slammed the door
I held her close, a little part of you
and my heart fell to the floor
