eMptiness
There was a time when all was right
When the moon was full and the stars were bright.
From the day when we first met,
I knew for sure that my life was set.
Not meeting you sooner than we had met,
Was one regret that we both shared.
Your eyes, your face, so perfectly formed
Just one glance could keep me warm
You stripped my heart of all past hurts,
And filled it with your loving words.
You and me, we both didn't hide,
Our hopes and dreams, for which wed fight.
But then he came, to claim your heart,
He claimed you his, right from the start.
Just like that, you walked out on me,
With tears I thought: how could this be?
Within my heart were little cries,
Playing back the hurts and lies. I fell for you;
I didn't know why,
I don't know why and I won't know why
From the moment you were gone,
An emptiness in me was born.
I think about the hurt and lies,
Was it your fault or was it mine?
I'd have to think of us as two,
And mend this shattered heart anew.
The wound has closed but the scar remains,
From the hurt and pain I have sustained.
What love I’ve found I’ve kept in me
But not where you were supposed to be.
Kept vacant for you till the end of time,
And till these words of mine don't rhyme....
