A Letter to Lost Love
Dearly beloved,
Watch as my tears leave my eyes for you.
Let my soul tear to millions of pieces for you.
How many things would I do for you,
if you were still here?
I tore myself apart for you.
I gave my deepest love to you.
I sacrificed my time for you.
Yet you still left.
How I loved you,
How I yearned for you,
How I laughed with you,
but in the end, you did not stay.
What did I do to you?
I think strange thoughts of you.
I am so confused about you.
Why did you leave?
Dead – that is not you.
Gone – I do not wish that of you.
Heartless – I cannot believe that of you.
No, you wanted to leave me.
Watch for me, darling.
Keep an eye on me, darling.
Observe the way I sleep, eat, dance, darling.
Mind how my life crumbles away,
Without you.
Lovingly,
Your Lost Love
