It kills me to know,
We could never be,
Love can’t grow back.
It was my everything.

It kills me to know,
Your mind is somewhere else,
Don’t want me anymore,
Love disappeared.

Where did it go?
To the girl that is yours?
Someone who is not me
I want your love.

It kills me to know
We aren’t together
Could never be
You are my world.

Love shattered like glass
Deeper then the blue sea
All I ever needed
Was you and me

The author's comments:
I wrote this when the love of my life dumped me. At the time, I thought he wanted someone else and that was the reason we broke up. We later got back togther and I read this poem to him. He loved it. Well I typed it up and I hope you love it too.
