I look around the room that used to be called ours,
I look at the blank spaces that used to have your things,
I look under the covers, i look in all the cupboards,
I close my eyes, reopen them, just hoping you'll be there.
I look out of the window,
The window where we used to sit,
I look at the empty bed,
The bed where you used to lay.
I stare at the blank walls,
Where our pictures used to be,
But they are gone, just an empty space,
Like the empty space in me.
I fill my room with rubbish,
Teddy bears, the lot,
Just anything to fill the void,
The void, the hole, the space you have left.
I fall to my knees,
As the tears pour down my skin,
Maybe i'll drown in this sorrow,
This despare you have left me with.
You took every memory,
Everything we shared,
You left me here with nothing,
I have nothing, i am nothing.
Is it my mind playing tricks on me?
Can i see you standing by the door?
Have you just walked in to greet me?
Are you smiling that beautiful smile my way?
No, please dont go, please come back,
That is just another memory faded away.
You have take that too, that one memory i had left.
Please just leave me something.
Do you think of me now?
As you lay alone in your bed?
Do you remember the times we shared?
Do you remember what we went through together?
Are you remonising on the past?
Or are you planning your future?
The future with out me,
The future with someone else?
I sit and cling on to the picture,
You know the one i kept in my purse,
The first picture i allowed to be taken of me in over 10 years,
The one where i smiled a real smile, for the first time in my life.
We both looked so happy,
Happier than iv ever been,
Happier than i ever will be again,
Now my eyes cry, and my heart bleeds.

So sad, it hurts to know someone had to go through this. But sadness is just another ingredient for beauty, remember all things happen for a reason, the reason here is to share your talent.
Great write!
