STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU


Time heals all hurt,
so the poets say.
I know this isn't true,
because I thought of you today.
Losing you still hurts,
the emptiness feels the same,
This aching loss of your betrayal,
fills my heart with pain.

You're in my mind,
and in my heart,
each and every day.
I try to blot you out,
but your memory seems to stay.

I didn't see it coming,
I thought our love was strong.
You'll never know how much it hurt,
to learn that I was wrong.

"I've met someone new,
someone I have to know",
and with those haunting words,
you turned, and let me go.

You said that you were sorry,
You didn't know what else to say".
You didn't plan to hurt me;
it just turned out that way.

My heart is full of pain;
I know we have to part.
My mind screams, "I hate you",
but I can't convince my heart.

I try to deny the pain,
but my feelings just won't die.
I wonder in my confusion,
what went wrong, and why?

Your betrayal cut me deeply,
like the skillful surgeons knife.
How will I live without you?
You're my friend, my lover, my life.

What we had is over;
you found a love that's new.
But me? I'll never be the same,
'cause I'm still in love with you.
