The pain I feel as my eyes swell
And tears fill up in the well
The burn starts to choke me
The words are coming out slow and shaken
I close my eyes and wonder why
there is a burning when I cry
When you left, it felt like hands around my throat, 
I couldnt talk I couldn't see - the burn was over-whelming me.
My heart is heavy ,and this is why…

I get the burn when I cry
I dig down deep, I just cant sleep
I turn and turn in my sheets.
I awake with sobs and wet pillow cases 
I wonder aimlessly looking into the sky.
I feel the burn when I cry,
Lost as if, I have been bereaved
Why did you have to leave?

The nights are so cold now
The days are so long
I have nothing left of you
But memories of our songs.
Our times of joy and laughter have all been erased.
Why did this have to happen. I still feel it’s a mistake.
On both of our parts
With broken hearts
Will I ever see you again in that light.
Or are we destined to be apart, forever in this fight.
