GONE

To a faraway land, you have drifted, And though it hurts, I bear the pain. Caught between uncertainties, I stood still, While you drifted further away.

My hesitation cost us dearly, Leaving us with no you and I. As I try to mend my broken heart, I put on a brave and cheerful lie.

I look back at what we could have been, Should have done, or might have said. But it’s too late now, you’re already gone, Leaving me alone and feeling dead.

I curl up in the darkness, crying, Feeling lost, sad, and so forlorn. And as I see you, happy and smiling, I mourn the beautiful you that’s gone.

You’ve found happiness, and that’s great for you, But it hurts me deeply, I must confess. Your joy is a painful reminder, Of what we had, and what I’ll miss.
