We said “I do”
We said “forever”
We said “til death do us part”
So, why are you so quick to leave
With my heart still beating
With today, tomorrow, and always
Still engraved in my heart
I gave you more than half my heart
So as I lay here, I lay empty
I lay with tears dripping down my eyes
They soak the pillows where we promised
Our bodies would never be apart
But here I lay, alone, empty, lost, & forgotten
The one I loved and thought I knew
Has become more than a stranger
Than a man I’ve never met
I knew you then, but now I know you less
I know less of who I was with you
Than who I am when I am not with you
Bring me back the parts of me that made me feel alive before you
Help me make sense of what the cards have in store for me without you
You said you’d be the one to protect me
But now I find myself looking for protection from you.

With today, tomorrow, and always
Still engraved in my heart”

Wow ! That’s the mood I was going for. Glad you felt that through my words

Heartbreaking and so touching

These lines: I know less of who I was with you/Than who I am when I am not with you
Everybody who’s been through a breakup knows exactly what that means. Very powerful.
Thank you so much 🙏🏽
