Life Without You
My eyes burned and my heart hurt
The nite that I wrote you that letter
I started it out with,
"I’ve written you many letters over the past few months
That have started out like this one"
That right there should have told you
How unhappy I was
But how much in love with you I was
I remember our first date so clearly
It started out as just two friends
Having fun
Nothing more...no thoughts of more
That’s where it should have stayed
But it didn’t
You danced to Sanatra with me in the parking lot
For all the passerbyers to see
You kissed me under the stars and the full moon
With all the passion that I had never felt before
I felt as though the stars had made a perfect
Match in Heaven
That was then and this is now though
I know that your love has ended for me
There is no more talk of marriage
Or even the next time that we will see one another
No longer does “I love you” pass thru your lips
No longer do your arms wrap around me to pick me up
You are still in my life you say
Still your number one girl you say
But your number one girl ranks last priority in your life
I thought at one time that I was a good person
Someone that could make you happy
I guess that that person isn't me
You received that letter that I wrote
I know that you did
No mention of it however
No changes have occurred
If anything you are further out there than before
Still no “I love you’s”
Still no more hugs that pick me up
Tell me, what do I do?
What do I say?
To make you realize that life without you
Is hard to imagine
That life without you might be easy
But a life without you would be hard to forget.
