We sit together in the grass,
Your face remains a pleasant mask,
I run my hand along your skin,
You smile lightly but don’t let me in.
I pear out across the field,
And feel the love in my heart yield,
I don’t let you see the pain I feel
The life from me you now steal.
We live together side by side
“I’m content” I would lie
No one sees what we are
It’s as if they see us from afar
Our home once pleasant now an icy tomb
No love is shared in those rooms
You cut yourself off from me
The only thing we now share is tea
I feel as if you’ve let me down
But still I sit beside you without a sound
I will always stay by you
And in my heart I will remain true
As I sit beside you in this heat
Our once precious memories I shall keep
Of days when I told you I loved you
Those days I still thought you loved me to
But I will not give up on us
Even though I feel I must
Because I’m afraid to say goodbye
Because I’m afraid of leaving you behind
Until my dieing days I will.
Until my beating heart grows still
When I can no longer feel for you
Before then I hope though you will give me a clue
Of how to get you to open up to me
Until again your love for me I see
For if I leave you behind
I feel the rest of my life will be in mine
For only with you does life seem real
Only with you do I truly feel
So here I sit in the grass hoping with all hope
That my time with you has not pass.

Ah! young love over and the difficult part of letting go it's never easy.
