Desolate
Something bound us together,
You had a connection to my soul.
Every moment I was with you,
Was a moment I felt whole.
Being with you was my comfort,
The thought of you a guide.
Nothing seemed impossible,
When you were by my side.
My spirit never empty.
My heart always fulfilled.
My cup half full with dreams,
And then one day it spilled.
You said you weren't ready,
And maybe love should wait.
Now loneliness consumes me.
My soul has lost it's mate.

Once Upon A Time
There once was a girl you loved...
Together, you took a chance on what could be,
You gave up all you knew,
On a great uncertainty.
She tried so hard to give you
Everything you could ever want,
But to be perfectly honest,
What she gave just wasn't enough.
But you kept on trying to love her,
You reassured her everyday,
That no matter what should happen,
You'd love her anyway.
But she knew she couldn't compete
With the life you'd left behind,
So she told you to make a choice,
And let you make up your mind.
You asked to remain her friend,
And she was happy to oblige,
But then you had to tell her,
Another truth...you lied.
You said you had to let her go,
She wasn't to see you again.
I guess you didn't love her so much,
Not even as a friend.
There once was a girl you loved...
Or at least that's what you said.
But actions speak louder than words,
And what you did resounds in her head.

Dear Ex
Long forgotten moments.
Tears already shed.
Nightmares just a memory-
now I dream instead.
I often think of you,
and how it used to be,
but I don't miss a thing.
I am content with me.
Harsh words spoken still,
yet they pass me by.
You can't hurt me anymore,
no matter how you try.
Reminders of the past
bring a smile to my face.
My heart has finally healed.
I have no empty space.
I'm happy with my life,
the past has helped me grow.
You were just a lesson
on love and letting go.

Reminiscing
I remember what you said,
As if it were yesterday,
When you let me know I was special,
The sunshine in your day.
I remember what you told me,
You said you needed me,
And that standing by my side,
Was the perfect place to be.
I remember what you confided,
How your heart had found a home.
True love finally captured your soul,
An experience you'd never known.
I remember an early warning,
You said it was all too fast.
But if you hesitate at anything,
You'll probably end up last.
I remember all you've said,
But you've forgotten many things,
Like when you said you loved me,
And how much joy my presence brings.
I remember a silly saying,
Something so cliche,
When love knocks, open the door,
Or else it will walk away.

Speculation
What if "someday" never comes,
And "possibly" passes us by?
What if "maybe" becomes a memory,
Now that we've said good-bye?
What if that were our only chance,
And we just let it slip away?
What if tomorrow never comes?
Did we make the most of today?
What if we were meant to be,
But we chose a different way?
What if yesterday was "someday",
And "possibly" came and went?
What if "maybe" leaves tomorrow?
Have all of our chances just been spent?

Let's Be Honest
The truth is,
I am happy
To mean something to you.
But if I am just a passing thought
In your day, that just won't do.
The truth is,
I am happy
Spending time alone.
But I need more than an hour with you,
More than a just minute on the phone.
The truth is,
I am happy
Knowing you are mine.
But nothing would make me happier
If you'd notice I'm worth your time.
The truth is,
I was happy
With the way you used to care.
But you brought me to love's doorstep,
And just left me standing there.
The truth is,
I'm not happy
That you've forgotten what could be.
But the saddest truth of all
Is that you've forgotten me.

Intentions
You never meant to break my heart.
You never meant for this to end.
You never meant to find true love,
In the heart of a friend.
You meant to try and work it out.
You meant for us to be.
You meant to show me happiness,
And give your love to me.
You never meant to hurt me.
You never meant to lie.
You never meant to lead me on,
Or mean to make me cry.
But, you mean to break it off with me.
You mean to say we're through.
You mean to try and walk away.
I thought I meant the world to you.

Tell Me
Open your heart and tell me,
What am I waiting for?
For someday, or maybe, or possibly?
Can't you give me any more?
It seems you've started something,
You intended to forget.
But you know that walking away from me,
Is a thing you will regret.
So you keep me at a distance,
And when it suits, you draw me near,
Never caring how it hurts me.
And you make it very clear,
That you control this twisted game,
And you play me for a fool.
Who knew you had it in you,
To be so very cruel?
You took a chance at love,
And gave your soul to me,
But was it all a lie,
I am just too blind to see.
Do you even feel guilty,
That I am waiting here for you?
And in spite of telling me you love me,
You're still wondering what to do?
We've been through possibly, maybe, someday,
At least a million times, or more,
So open your heart and tell me,
What are you waiting for?

A Common Misconception
I thought I made you happy.
I thought I made you mine.
I thought I had it in me
To make your world divine.
I thought you'd let me show you.
I thought you'd try to see.
I thought you opened your heart
To all that we could be.
I thought you had a reason.
I thought you had a goal.
I thought the purpose was
To fill your empty soul.
I thought we fit together.
I thought we'd last so long.
I thought we had found heaven,
But it looks like I thought wrong.

Ciao
A smile and wave,
and then you're gone.
Sometimes good-byes
last far too long.
It's time for you
to go away.
Maybe we'll meet
again, someday.
But I won't wait,
and I won't cry.
The time is right
for this good-bye.
Though we've changed,
I love you, still,
And, no matter what,
I always will.
Thank you for listening,
and being a friend,
and for all the times
my heart you'd mend.
Thanks for the past,
it was good for a while,
but I realize now,
without you I CAN smile.
I'm moving on.
No looking back.
Saying 'bye
is all we lack.
No more pressure,
I'll leave you be.
So long to you,
will set me free.
I wish the best
for you and I,
but now it's time
to say good-bye.
It's better this way,
we know it's true.
I'll be okay...
I don't need you.
