It's all over now,
It's really the end this time.
He broke me down
And destroyed me,
So why do I still love him?
Why can't I move on?
This time I've really lost him.
This time he's not coming back.
But I'll sit here and wait anyways
In case he changes his mind.
Why can't I see he's really packed up and gone?
Why can't I move on?
Looking back now, we were always so happy.
When did that start to fade away?
Maybe if I wasn't so concerned about him
I wouldn't have been so clingy, and he'd still be here.
Why am I still hanging onto it all?
Why can't I move on?
I'm still in love with him.
Maybe that was always my problem.
I thought things would work out.
I thought that in the end, they'd be ok.
So why did he leave me?
Why can't I move on?
He's still the one I long for at night.
He's still the one thing that keeps me going.
He's still the one who I always want to hold.
He's still the inspiration for everything I do.
He's still the only thing that matters.
He's still the only one I love.
I can't sleep knowing it's over.
I can't go on without him by my side.
I can't stay standing without him to lean on.
I can't do anything worthwhile without him, my inspiration.
I can't think of anything that matters more than him.
I can't ever love anyone else this much again.
One more night together.
That's all we had.
We spent it in loving passion,
Holding each other close as if there was no tomorrow.
Then he reconsidered because she is his soul mate, not me.
But I'm still standing here and waiting, aren't I?
Because for some reason,
No matter how hard I try,
I can't let go.
It's really over now.
It's really come to an end.
But still, I just...
Can't move on.

Well, I imagine many people feel this way about someone at some point in their life. You said it all in just the right way. Congratulations on the gold. Shancy.

All I can think about is how god damned awful that feeling must be.... I'd hafta say that's one feeling that I'd probably least ever want and one that I might just go absolutely f*cked-up/crazy over.
I can't exactly relate to this but, as you may be able to tell, you definitely expressed this [whatever "this" may be. lol] very well. Great write!!
