The Pain I Live

I will never be the same
After what I saw that day
I am broken beyond repair
But yet I am still trying to pick up the pieces
There's no way in hell
That I can forgive or forget
The pain I felt
That dreadful day
I am haunted by the image
I see it many times a day
It feels like it was just yesterday
That you went crazy before my eyes
I cry myself to sleep
Living life without you by my side
My heart is now cold and bitter
Because the love I had is just about gone
I try to lie to myself
And say I still want you
But how can I want
Someone who hurt me so?
You hurt me so I hurt you
Does two wrong make a right?
It is slowly making sense
But I'm still so confused.
I love you but I don't
I need you but I don't
I want you but I don't
I miss you but I don't
How can I love another?
How can I move on?
I ask this each day
But still I must try
I can't just stop being who I am
I just won't let myself die
At least not yet
Because I still have some life inside.
