Heartbreak

My heart is aching
Dying
Breaking
From the absence
Of your smile.

Can't you see
By looking
At me
You make my life
Worthwhile?

I know it's wrong
We don't belong
Together.
Friends,
Don't date.

And so I will hide
How broken inside
I've become
Since I let
You escape.

Now I'm so afraid
That you would trade
My friendship
For some
Other girl.

How can I pretend
That I can befriend
The person
That stole
My world?

I'm losing me.
My sanity
Is slipping,
Through
The cracks.

I hate this feeling.
I'm tired of dealing
With the
Questions
It attracts.

But when I foresee
How happy I'd be,
I can't help
But wish
You were mine.

What else can I do
When thoughts of you
Are all
That fill
My mind?

One day, you'll ask.
You'll see through the mask
I put on
To hide
The pain.

And I'll try to lie
But seeing your eyes
Will break me
And make me
Explain.
