The Final Break
(for the only love of my life)
by gentlegirl

How do I breathe now
with pain oh so deep
How do I manage
the tears that I weep
We're over and done with
almost like a dream
Please wake me wake me
is what my heart screams
This pain in my heart
so physically real
It's bringing me down
to actually kneel
My love runs so strong
how do I let go
I sob and I sob
as the tears quickly flow
I have to be strong
this time no return
Will I never win
the true love I yearn
im hiding from you now
i can't turn around
must keep all my strength
and stand on firm ground
i know if i see
your beautiful face
your wonderful eyes
ill fall here in place
i cant let you touch me
it sets me on fire
oh love oh love
my one desire
Please help me please
my heart shattered again
The guard I had there
now withers within
I gave all of me
no secrets held in
You knew how i felt
being broken by him
I was your wife
and you were my man
we placed a ring
on each others hand
With promises of forever
to love till we died
I tried and I tried
but you killed it inside
From careless thoughts
mistrust and neglect
You left me alone
not seeing the affect
Oh how many times
complaints on end
Begging to save us
our love to defend
Deaf ears did it fall
now here's where we are
Hearts broken and shattered
time carried us too far
No return in sight
for the garden is bare
The roses are dead
delinquent of care
Though i watered with tears
so often i know
But you killed the flowers
before they could grow
Our future we planned
with joy and glee
The happiness we felt
when you would meet me
We never made it
to know the real feel
Of being together
my heart will not heal
Goodbye goodbye
I can't even say
For if i see you
I can't walk away
So i must continue
this path that I chose
Please help me be strong
and keep my heart closed.
