Tell me how

I was a mess,
Chaos is written on my forehead
I was a trash
A nobody. An unwanted gal

You were living a good life
A decent, clean unscathed
You were already on top
A privileged, successful one

We crossed our paths
With different pasts
Were you just being bored?
While I was a lonely soul?

You held my hands
Brought warmth thru my heart
Protected me, supported me
With all your care and energy

I was wrapped in your arms
And suddenly forgot
My chaotic life
While I enjoy your warmth

Here I am now
Back to being alone
You're miles away, waiting for the day
That you'll share your lifetime with someone worthy

Who am I to shed a tear
When I am just a nobody
Who am I to hold you close
When someone else is waiting you home?

Tell me how to go on living
When I have known how warm is your embrace?
Tell me how to move on
When I have kept your memories deep down my soul?

Tell me how to keep on going
When the road you paved is parallel to me
Our roads won't cross again maybe
So tell me how to keep my sanity.
