Heartbreak? Love? Or Neither? by Alexandra Rader (i wanna iguana read aloud .TXT) 📖

I tick. He tocks.
My heart beats. His is a clock

I'm set to sorrow. He's set to cry
I say hello. He says goodbye

My heart breaks. His does, too
My eyes cry. He's all blue

I feel sad. He feels sorrow
I hurt today. He waits for tomorrow

I fall down. He breaks apart
I'll love him forever. He's had me from the start

My heart cries out. His cries within
My blood says Yang. His screams Yin

My veins sing. His starts to shiver
I hold him close. His body begins to quiver

Why does it hurt so much,
For me to accept you're gone?
Why won't the tears stop,
Even when I'm not alone?

Why does the thought of you,
Put a knife straight through my heart?
Why do I fall to the ground,
And my composure fall apart?

Why was it you,
That had to go?
Why am I left here,
Fallen so low?

Why couldn't it have been me,
Inside that car?
Why is this not fair,
Leaving me wondering where you are?

Why was it you,
That had to die?
Why are we left here,
With nothing left but to cry?

Why does it hurt so much,
To have heard those crumbling words?
Why can't I move on?
I hear your voice with the birds.

I'm hurting inside.
Wishing I was the one who died.

I fall apart when I look your way
If I approached what would you say?

You sit there and act like nothing is wrong
When we were together I found where I belong

How can you act like this doesn't affect you?
Every night I fall apart, you don't even have a clue

Day after day, we drift farther apart
And yet you've still got a place deep within my heart

As more and more days fly by
I come to realize that you were my guy

If I did something wrong, could you come to forgive me?
I try to act like I can breathe, so that everyone will let me be

I try to hide all the pain and sorrow within
I wonder how things could have been

When on accident, you catch my eye
Do you ever regret our silent goodbye?

Why am I so cursed in happiness and love?
Doesn't anyone hear my cry from above?

We joked and laughed and had a good time
I thought I had your heart, and you definitely had mine

With tears in my eyes, I watch you pass by
Hoping you'd see my pain or hear my desperate cry

Every morning, I put a smile on my face
But every night it falls out of place

Music helps to pass the time
Loving you should be a crime
