Fading Whispers

Remember

To: the person who broke my heart

When you were drifting
I caught you

I kept you from falling
I kept you from hurting

I protected you
I gave my all

Then you left
The footsteps clear in

My mind
The words you uttered

Goodbye
The kisses we shared lingering

The hugs we had
The secrets we told

My heart opened unto you
My heart broken to pieces

Don't you see?
I'm not over you

Never was
Never have been

I know you won't realize this
I know you won't care

I know I'm nothing now
But a tiny part of me hurts

When I see you
I still feel love

I haven't given up on you
The kisses we shared together

The words you told me
The love I gave you

I gave you my love
And then you had it

Had it for a long time
Now it's gone

I'm still moving on
They say time heals all wounds

But will it heal a broken heart?
Will it heal me?

I'm under lock and key now
I'm sorry

I wanted to know
Why did you leave me?

Don't you know?
I still love you

Don't you know?
You're still a part of me

Don't you know?
Memories can't be lost

Not the memories we made
Remember when you said you'd never leave me?

That you loved me?
That I was yours forever?

I should have known
It was a lie.
