The One
The pain I feel,
I can't explain,
The tears I shed,
Are just the same.
I go to bed,
And think of you,
The time we spent,
Talking it through.
I long for you,
I can't go on,
The photograph's,
Now you are gone.
My heart is torn,
It'll never mend.
I need you here,
To dry my tears.
I want you here, by my side,
To kiss me goodnight,
And talk to me.
So after I write this poem tonight,
I'll cry myself to sleep tonight.
I can't explain,
The tears I shed,
Are just the same.
I go to bed,
And think of you,
The time we spent,
Talking it through.
I long for you,
I can't go on,
The photograph's,
Now you are gone.
My heart is torn,
It'll never mend.
I need you here,
To dry my tears.
I want you here, by my side,
To kiss me goodnight,
And talk to me.
So after I write this poem tonight,
I'll cry myself to sleep tonight.
