when Butterflies Dream of Tomorrow

Given and now Lost

Given and now Lost

Your facial expressions have no meaning

You don’t show any compassion

And 

I miss the way you smiled

And

How you used to comfort me 

And 

Make me feel that everything was ok

You used to make me feel like

I was the most important person 

In the world

You used to make me feel

That you honestly

Loved me

There was fire

There was passion

There was longing

We couldn’t wait to see each other

Hold each other 

Kiss each other

Share

I gave you my heart

I gave you my soul

I gave you

Me

The phone calls

The texts

The emails

The silly little notes left on pillows

Where did it go?

Now

You have your space

Your friends

Your life

And

I have lost mine

I lost you
