She's There

She told me while we were driving,
She wanted to take a break,
I thought we were trying to fix it,
She said she couldn't pretend.

I never pretended with her,
And its my fault,
She had to pretend with me.

I drove her home and went out drinking,
I think I was in shock,
I didn't feel it yet.
Yet.

She says she still loves me,
And will try to forgive,
But the pain increases,
With my realisation.

She is my home,
And I threw away the key.
I wait and hope,
that she'll give me a new one.

Each day crawls by and I think of her.
Constantly.

I close my eyes. she's there.
I open them. she's there.
I drink too much. She's there.
I curse my idiocy, foolishness and selfishness.

She's There.

    I'm sorry... :(
    I hope she has a brand new key for you

    Forgiveness, then time to trust again....
    Love is worth both
