I lost the love of my life last night. We’d been together two years. It’s the right move for us, but it hurts so damn bad. The heart doesn’t want what the mind knows.

The lessons learned through life are cruel
They know how to hit you right
In the depths of your heart
Tied forever deeper still

2 short years of history working
To create in me a better man
Now torn loose from my moorings
Sailing lost with no direction

Emotions pounding deep within me
Yet I know our time has come
Heart battling brain yet
Logic no longer makes sense

I know that I’ve changed for the better
But the cost was my heart
How it will ever repair itself
Is a stretch of senseless logic

Thank you
It seems I’m stronger through my weakness
Yet forever will I dream
To succumb all over again

I will never forget what we had.
I know you hate public shows
Yet I need to tell everyone I know
That this is how I’ve grown

Goodbye to my love
Yet hello to my dearest friend
Your place in my heart
Never set to change
