Just who are you now, no different than before?
So dark and dreary, the pain lusts from every word.
Just what happened to that lovely girl I fell in love with...
The one from whom I finally listened.
There is a lack I think, in the heart of one so sweet,
A hole that seems to be there... maybe because we want it to be...
A hole fills in time, by us or someone else.
Hopefully a bit of both, I think, to erase all but the memory...
That way we know that we actually want what we have,
And that someone else is watching.
We are not alone, in the mystery defined as life.
The problems are shared,
The fun is shared,
The laughing, the crying, the killing and the dying...
But most of all, the living.
All of this is shared, together we all get our answers.
Why, Why, Why...
Maybe not so we can see them...
But just enough so that our hearts can hear them...
And they all come in time.

Your first verse reminds me of me and how someone special thought of me once upon a time...before the fall and I turned into something I regret and he has lost respect for. There's a thin line between love and hate...
The second verse reminds me of how I am now with my new love:
"A hole fills in time, by us or someone else.
Hopefully a bit of both, I think, to erase all but the memory...
That way we know that we actually want what we have,
And that someone else is watching."
Wow! I couldn't have put it better myself. Especially the intruiging part about "someone else is watching."
The rest sums up how I've felt about that one I had to let go of...and that was a long process.
So I really relate to this. I love your choice of words and how you have captured letting go. I'll never ever, ever understand that relationship and "why,why,why", but hope to somehow settle for the answer:
"Maybe not so we can see them...
But just enough so that our hearts can hear them...
And they all come in time."
I loved this and think you did a great job. I wouldn't change a thing!!
