Alone
Why, oh why did you leave me alone?
You were all that I knew. All that I had?
Now you are gone, and what is there of me?
Did you mean to take my heart with you or just throw it away?
I’m cold and alone?
Empty
Hope is a faded memory?
Why did you leave me alone?
Why, oh why, with me alone and broken, do you tease me?
A call. A text. A note. All for not.
A tease. A flirt. A new break of my heart.
Why do you break my heart?
Love, Dear Sweet Love, do you know it?
I thought I knew it but you took it away?
Will it return? When will it return?
Why did you take our love?
Will you return one day?
Will you do so while I’m still able to love?
Or will you wait until there is no love to give?
Where are you now and where is our love?
Love is gone. It’s flame is quenched.
It’s home is cold and broken.
I not yet know how to fix it. Can I fix it?
How do you fix it?
Alone, Alone Shall I always be
alone?

I enjoyed this. It is
I enjoyed this. It is emotional and sad. It is always worse to have to ask why instead of knowing the answers. Loneliness is a horrible feeling.
Thanks
Thank you. It is emotional and sad and I think it tells a story that many of us know. Putting pain into words is hard, but that pain was a while ago and those words wrote a little while back. The strange thing is after not being involved with that person for a couple of years except for the occational update, she called my father, who manages a house we own, and asked to rent it. I just saw her a few minutes ago. Strange how life works.
