Selfish Heart

By birdznest34

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Lost in the blackness of yesterday, I'm feeling your love slip away and I don't know what to do, Asked you why you can't say much, Can't help feeling so out of touch, And all I know is I love you When you told me, that you wanted to be alone, Like a King without a throne, I just felt like I could die. And I'm sorry, for whatever it is I've done, All that you can do is run away from me baby, Must be my selfish heart Now there's a tear falling from my eye, All I want to do is lay down and die And it isn't meant to be, It's been too long that we've been apart, I'm walking around without a heart And I loved you faithfully, When I saw you, walking around with that new gal, Looking in her eyes with that loving glance I knew that for me there was no chance And I'm sorry, for whatever it is I've done All that you can do is run away from me baby Must be my selfish heart Oh I thought that we were meant to be, Forever is what you said to me, I loved you so much, I loved you so much But now she has you by her side, I'm left with nothing, not even pride But you told me that's tough, tough I really don't know what to do, I can't get over losing you, It hurts me so bad, It's making me mad I thought that we were so together, Never dreamed that you'd find someone better It's making me sad, can't help feeling so sad There is no one, who could ever be my goal Who can wrap themselves around my heart and soul And take me in their arms There is no one, who I'd rather be with Who could make me believe I had a right to live Must be my selfish heart Written November 28th, 2001 © on Nov 27 2001 04:01 PM PST   0 • 8 • 1
