Awake while the world sleeps

It's like I don't even know you anymore.
You've turned into this person that I've never seen before.
When I look into your eyes,
I see the guilt built up inside.

I always wish things would be the way they were back then.
When I was your perfect ten.

Now you only fill my head with rotten words.
Like clipping the wings from a caged bird.
You hold me down. You keep me back.
Your love seems to be what I lack.

I haven't felt it for a while.
Clearly living in denial.
Never thought this could be true.
A life without me and you.

Forever and always we used to say.
After each and every love filled day.
Now they have become so few and far between.
I've given up. I just want to scream.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

For the first time in a while I am up at 3am. My mind is full of fleeting thoughts and I can feel it in the pit of my stomach.

A heart is like a puzzle. It's hard to put together when the pieces are broken and missing.
