On My Own Again~ Poem by Marsha Youree

I’m here again, on my own
Life seems to pass me by
Remembering your words
As tears fall from my eyes.

I remember the day you left
I still can feel the pain
The love I thought was beautiful
To you, it was only a game.

You didn’t tell me from the start
Our love, I thought was straight
Instead you had to break my heart
And make me guess and wait.

You even kissed me once more
And I thought you were true
Now I know you’re gone for good
But, I’ll never stop loving you.

You know each day I fall apart
Some say, I’m fading away
I don't care and I don’t feel
Every since you went away.

Time just seemed to stop for me
All I can think of is the past
You’ll always be there with me
And that will always last.

I never thought I’d feel this way
Everyone envied our love so true
Although you’re never coming back
My heart will always belong to you.

When I’m dead and in my casket
Laid out, for everyone to see
Could you fake it one last time?
When you look down at me.

I do think you owe me that
Since it’s the final goodbye
And maybe, if I’m lucky
A fake tear will fall from your eye.
