My Love / Drifting Away

Platypus • 292 followers

Don't you worry, my love,
I don't feel the pain.

Don't you worry, my love,
I will not lose as much as I gain.

I am going elsewhere, my love,
A soft and gentle dream.

Where I am not despised, my love,
And hope guides me there with her welcoming beam.

And though I love you, my love,
It's nothing compared to the hate.

The stares and whispers, my love,
On my shoulders, a heavy weight.

Now that weight has been lifted, my love,
I am being set free.

I will miss you, my love,
But I know it is nothing compared with how much you will miss me.
My love, I am truly sorry.

Why?

Why does it hurt so bad. Why does being alone make me so sad. What did I do to deserve this pain. What did I do that made me so insane. Why did you leave me.

Mend Your Broken Heart

You spill your heart out. Like you don't want to. But say "well you did ask". Like it's nothing on you. But it seems she hurt you. Although I don't know. But I think you liked her.

January Air

In this January air... It's cold and unwelcoming.. My thoughts race and replay. Every little memory you left behind, Makes me uncomfortable in my own skin.. December was filled with love..

Goodbye

Where did you go. Why am I last to know. Was it all a lie. What about the tears I cry. What about that kiss.

Breaking up

It's hard to see you're not there anymore, It's hard to see that you love me no more, It's hard to replace that missing place, That you use to fill with such hast, It's impossible to think that I've...

Deserted

I tried my hardest, But didn't succeed. You dropped my hand, Through moments of need. I tried to win, But loss arrived. You let me go, Feeling love deprived. I tried my best, Which wasn't enough.
