Where did you go, my love?

I can't keep up.
One moment we're falling in love
the next we're falling apart.
We're up
we're down
I'm losing my mind...

I see you now
the stranger you've become-
What happened, love?
Where did you go, the sweet little boy I used to know?
The one that stole my heart
long before I knew the price to pay.
Do you remember the pact we'd made?
I gave you my heart
and you gave me yours.
You promised we'd be OK
as long as we stayed close.
I'd always be yours
you'd always be mine
But somewhere along the way
as the years passed us by
I guess we fell apart...

The sweet little boy
that I had known
that stole my heart with a kiss and a rose
Oh so many years ago...
Where did you go, my love?

Trying not to love you

If I told you that I love you
would you stick around to reply?
Would you run for the hills?
Would you leave me high and dry?
Cause I swear, I didn't mean to -
I even tried not to.
But honestly,
I think I should blame you.
Because if it hadn't been for you -
your kind and caring eyes
your subtle touch
and your stolen kiss one moonlit night,
maybe then, I would have stood a chance.
But as it is, if it hadn't been for you and all you are
you wouldn't have woken the sleeping corners of my heart
and maybe then, I wouldn't have failed
when trying not to love you.

I'm over you

I tell myself I’m over you -
yet find myself thinking of you,
far more often than I should.
Yet it doesn’t hurt like it use too -
now only a phantom pain lingering
after a long ago cut off limb.
Does that mean I've come to accept?
Does that mean I've pass through
all the dreaded stages of grief?

I can see I've tried to beg,
I've tried to bargain.
I've been consumed with rage,
sometimes I still am...
I’ve cried my heart out,
I've shouting to the stars in a desperate plight...
I felt the hopelessness set in
as the realization near drowned me;
I will never find comfort in your arms again

The Stranger

I find myself staring at you,
the man I used to know,
the man that knew me;
My every hope,
my dreams,
every hidden secret that was me.
You, the one I loved
the one that claimed to love me.

Disconcerting I stand
perplexed by the notion
that I'm staring into a strangers eyes,
naked and exposed-
unarmed by the trust I placed in you.
