my heart is fading

Oh my heart it is breaking
Shards ready for the taking.
And I can’t keep faking
Maybe it was too much to take in.

Loneliness befalls me
It’s plain for everyone to see.
I stopped floating in this muddy sea
Begging you, please don’t set me free.

But you turn around and go
Everything inside is sinking low.
And I want to hear that it isn’t so
But you keep walking away, slow.

I refuse to believe in this!
We lived in ignorant bliss
And nothing was amiss.
This can’t be our final kiss.

The sorrowful truth lies heavy on my heart
I thought we were so smart,
That our love was a work of art.
Maybe we were doomed right from the start?

Wherever you may go, I wish you many things
But remember no one will offer my sins.
The truth is, we were under each other’s skins
Deeper than anyone before or ever since.
