Things are very different now
for we've drifted apart
but even though they are not the same
I still think of you as mine.
I truly believe that hearts that once beat as one
will always be together forever
entwined as they become one
until the end of existence.
Since we split, I haven't been the same
for your name revolves in my head
our goodbye's now my biggest regret
my mistakes, my biggest downfall.
We were once happy in love
I remember those times so clearly
smiling and giggling with you
making my each day, perfect.
You held my heart in your hands
I remember you catching my tears
then things went painfully awry
and I lost your love for me.
I have to face the hard facts
that we are no longer together
and that we could never be
even though, I wish it with all of my heart.
Although you are far from my arms
you are never far from my heart
for I know that this love will never leave
as we shared too many memories and special moments together.
I will never try to forget you
and remember you the rest of my days
for you helped me find myself
and the meaning of true love and happiness.
Why did I put you through so much pain?
when I loved you more than life itself
why did I unleash my moods onto you?
when you meant the world to me.
I was always deeply afraid
that you would never forgive me
but as always, you did
and I am thankful for your golden heart.
You are so important to me
and I sincerely never meant to hurt you
for the only thing I wanted to do
was to love you with all my heart.
I wish you could take me back
because I love you and miss you so dearly
as it's so hard to fight this heartache
knowing I have to finally let go.
It's killing me to realize
I will never feel your touch
and the sweetest of heavenly kisses
placed upon my eager lips.
