Forever Yours

Lookin for tomorrow, but barely making it through the day

All the love is gone but the pain is here to stay.

You said you wouldn't be gone long but now I can barely keep up with the days.
 
My heart is long gone and now my chest is just an empty space.
 
I was told to keep up and stay strong but then you changed the pace
 
So I searched for affection in another place, but no matter where I went I always saw your face.
 
So I muttered empty words and half-hearted sweet nothings, but then you returned and
I came running. 
 
But something was different and you could tell, that I wasn't the same as before.
 
You'd finally noticed the shattered pieces of my heart on the floor.
