You held the looks of the love of my life.

In my eyes, you were a goddess.

Now you aren't who you were before.

You just look like a broken promise.


I see parts of you that no one else can,

Not even yourself when you look at a mirror.

I held a marvellous deck of cards,

While yours were filled with terror.


You changed so much since we first met,

Now you just seem like a clone.

Even if you look as beautiful as ever,

Your heart is no better than a stone.


Whenever you talk, your voice is the same,

But your words are empty and meaningless.

You were the one who healed my heart,

And you made me, yet again, emotionless.


Don't you know how scared and nervous I was?

When this dramatic change of events occurred?

Being without you is like in a dark room,

How lonely I feel is absurd.


So now when I look at you,

The clone, the goddess, the one I need;

Only one question can come into my head,

And that is where are we?
