You're gone
Now my walls are empty
Of your poetry
I'm done
With writing these happy songs
Of you and me
I'll remember how I just broke down
When you said "I'm leaving you."
I'll remember that final "I love you"
That last clasp of hands
I'll hold on forever
Because
I know we both knew it was coming
While hoping the day
Would never show up
But it did
Oh, it did
Just look at us now
I cried when I boxed our mementos
I cried when I realized you'd never come back
I died several hundred times over
When I woke up alone
I miss you
I know we both knew it was coming
While hoping the day
Would never show up
But it did
Oh, it did
Just look at us now

You are so talented! Keep writing...hopefully happy songs are on the horizon. :) LUMI!
Excellent lyrics! Soon and very soon you'll be writing songs of joy about some lass "who's out there somewhere" who will add value to your life and then - to borrow a line from one of my own compositions: You'll be "flying so high above (your) sorrows ... (you) can see tomorrow ... and, ah - the going is right!" And you will look back and come to see this as waters gone by! The future, son, looks bright ahead! Trust GOD. Love you!
Ponder this: "We do not succeed in changing things according to our desire; but gradually our desire changes! The situation we hoped to change because it was "intolerable" becomes ... unimportant. We have not managed to surmount the obstacle - as we are determined to do. But GOD takes us through it, leads us past it and then, if we turn round to gaze at the remote past, we can barely catch sight of it --- so imperceptible has it become!"
