Sadness erupts across the room
as I strum a meloncholy tune
The air is filled with misery
Just the thoughts of you and me
The chord I strike, sounds off
My tears flow down, and I cough
Memories of the times we had
Some were good, most were bad
but I always hoped deep inside
We'd make it, you know I tried
Tonight I sit in the bedroom alone
It's all dark, now that you're gone
I play my guitar, with worn strings
Oh, the sorrowful melody it brings
A tune of pain, from missing you
and wondering if you feel the same, too
Drops hit the guitar neck, as I weep
The sound from wet strings echo deep
Your love remains inside my heart
and this wretched ballad tearing it apart...

Darling, this is amazingly sad. I feel like crying. I am honestly not a fan of end-rhyme or any form of rhyme, but you managed to pull it off. Not only that, I can see and hear this as a song. Let me know if you ever get it recorded.
