Growing Pains

Words can’t express

The ways I miss you

How my hand aches

To pick up the phone and call

As I sit with a smile plastered on my face

Internally I mourn

From what was torn

In two opposite directions

Your heart can no longer be with me

While my heart believes we are destined

Uncertainty crept in

As I thought to myself

What did I do wrong?

I gave you all of me

Even what I didn’t have

I’d find a way to get it so you’d be happy

I was faithful, patient never disloyal to our ties

Yet you can’t even look in my face

As you’re telling me goodbye?

How I cried wishing I would die

No explanation you give

Will answer my

WHY???



Sitting here I now know

TIME

Is the only thing I have lost

Played a role in our separation

Everything comes with a cost

In the past, haunts you in the present

It all comes back to you

Is the only matter

That’s truly destined
