Sorrow in the Heart


He turned his back on his promise; stopped keeping his word
She did not understand what had changed - why this was happening to her
She thought about all that she did for him
Had it not been enough; was she not good enough
The confusion turned to depression and to sadness
She hated what her heart felt; all the pain he caused her
She did not hate him; she hated only herself
She could not bring herself to get out of bed each day
She had a feeling of despairevery timehe left
Every timeshe heard the door slam shut; a part of her slammed shut
Crying all the time she felt so alone
All the sorrow that flowed through her heart; all the hurt feelings
She wanted a way out; to feel no more pain
One night he took off without knowing if he would return
She reached for the bottle to end all the sorrow
To stop the nightmare of being alone and always wondering that he moved on and found someone new
