Calm My Broken Heart

My life has passed in such a way
It can be so difficult to say
What has happened to the days..
to the memories?

Calm my troubled heart, I plead
It's you that I want, I need
That smile upon my face has faded
Hidden under the best facade.

My life has passed in such a way
I feel ashamed to have lived it.
I'm nothing like I used to be
I'm nothing like I was with you.

Calm my damaged heart, I plead
It's you that I want, I need
Fix the pains the world has caused
Mend the heart that you once loved.

My life has passed in such a way
I don't know why I've lived it.
My mind isn't thinking, isn't right
My choices clouded and veiled.

Calm my distorted heart, I plead
It's you that I want, I need
The day shows one person, the night another
My identity lost to the stars.

My life has passed in such a way
I wish I was someone else.
The day I saw you holding her, like you used to hold me
..the day I was erased from your memory.

Calm my jealous heart, I plead
It's you that I want, I need
This angelic face you once beheld
Has now turned into hers.

The memories we've had are taking hold
Buried beneath me for so long
One night with you, that's all I need
For you to calm my broken heart, I plead.

    This seemed kinda repetitive in places. But I guess it suited the poem well. This I could relate to in other parts but one part that really cought my eye was "..the day I was erased from your memory." I feel like I was erased from his memory. I wish you the best of luck in this contest.
