If you are not here
you are everywhere
have not seen you in several years
suddenly you are here, there and everywhere
I see you on the streets
dressed in leather
You still have the feather trinket I gave
all those years ago
The day we said goodbye
I should have said something
I needed to tell you
I was being forced
against my wishes
I wanted to marry you
and be cherished by you forever
but he threatened to kill
you if I did
He did not kill you
My cowardice killed you
the day i broke your heart
and crushed your
heart into a thousand pieces
No one ever knows
What it feels like dying of a broken heart
a living dead trapped forever inside my body
my broken heart encased in steel of stone
I see you on the streets and I almost fall over
from all the hurt, pain and betrayal that surrounds us in our joint history.
