Lost Illusion

Lost IllusionI just want to be part of your symphony

And if you hold me tight

I won't let goI trusted you with all my heart and soul

It wasn’t for you to take it this far

Too high you raised the barThe memories were only half yours

They were mine too

The love was a piece of cake to share we were asked to

Not for you to have the whole

Left my life down like a troll

I wept like a baby for months

Broke my breath piece by piece

Letting you go was the hardest thing to do

Someone help me to get this through

You took the light when you left

Left me in the dark

All is gone now

Says the mind that barks

How am I supposed to be happy if every time the memory of your smile cuts a sliver of my heart

I feel like the stranded leaf on the corner of the branch

Waiting for the water to reach but it never does

My mother told me to remember after every soaring heart comes a happy day

After a storm, there will be a rainbow

But in the grey of the storm

I forgot about the colors of the rainbow I want to not want you anymore

I'm falling apart can barely breatheSomeone tell my heart

To remember to beatIn an endless garden of flowers

I will always pick you 

But just like you the memories flew

Carpe diem they say

But tell them there is nothing left for me to stay

We talked, I smiled

He whisked over my handI dealt in pride

You gave me the strength to live

Now you’re the reason to die

There was a “WE”, a hope

But nothing afterNo love, no life, no laughter

Life is like an elevator on your way up sometimes you just need to let some people off

I can love you and still let you go so Baby

I love you

And I’m letting you go                        

 - the love of my life
