Therez a stillness in the way the sun is fading into the night
I have nothing to ask and I seek no answers tonight
As I envy the happiness for deserting me alone
I ignore the staring silence as a fossil stone
Too long I have loved you no less than a devotee
And my sadness wonders why you would not want me
I seeked no favours, I desire no luxury
"Togetherness" is all I want from your treasury
Beneath the sinking thought of being unable to see you again
My conscience compels me to look for a bargain
I was willing to adjust, I am ready to wait
But for the sake of our love, show me some faith
I promise to be the strength behind your decision
But giving up on "us" is such a derision
I have been so truthful, n I trusted you always
The thought of being fooled enduringly stays
The more you wavered, the more would my heart assert
To love you a lot more so that you could revert
The more you were weak, the more I would fear
Who would love you, when I am not near
And the less I thought of my own importance
The weaker you became in your vacillating stance
I looked up to you as my lucky charm
You thrashed my soul, what you did was harm
Your fake promises drench my broken soul
In a filthy betrayal that stinks in whole
I see the courage as such an expensive deal
As you choose stepping back over determined heel
As I stand today with a piece of my faith lost
I would come back stronger, whatever be the cost
I would rebuild my life from the desertion midway
You might be gone, but the truth in me will stay!
