How

How do you hold onto a heart that so desperately wants to be free?
How can you admire the eyes that no longer want to see?
How do you touch the hand that has lost all of its feeling?
How do you mend a broken heart that is far beyond healing?
How do you care for a man that stopped caring long before?
How can you get him back when he's already half way out the door?
How do you forget the love that he once showered on you?
How can you believe you were the only one when he's already found someone new?
How do you look into the eyes that no longer mirror your reflection?
How can you trust the arms that now offer false protection?
How do you kiss his lips when they no longer yearn for you?
How do you believe those "3 words" when you know they aren't true?
How do you turn back time and change what has done?
How can you believe he loves you when you know you're not the one?
How do you stop loviing him when he's all there is to feeling?
How do you mend a broken heart when it is far beyond healing?

...sorry for all the how's
