"Forever To Stay"

Saying goobye to you was like none of my dreams coming true. Someone took a dagger and shoved it in my heart. Without you, a new day I couldn't start. The pain will subside and I will go on. The tears will dry up, but I will still be forlorn. You will always be there,  but it won't be a world that we can share. It won't be a world where we can laugh and cry. It will be a world where we just smile and pass by. We can't talk about our wants and fears. We are going to miss the precious years. But we have to go on. The past will turn black. Into your head, pictures and memories of me you can pack. We can't think about the past,  and promises we might not be able to keep. You don't make promises for the future, because "Talk is cheap!" There will be days in life when you won't want to go on. There will be days when you wish you had never been born. Then there are some days, when you will feel like a child, so helpless and weak.  You won't want to move, Or even speak. You will set around dwelling in your pain and living in your past. Thinking of what you could possibly gain. Not thinking of what will last. Then you think, I felt love for six months and two weeks. You remember the laughs. Then you blush at the cheeks. You think how he changed your life, and picked you up from a long fall. And the good side of his heart that only you saw. You realized you loved him as a your own and nothing else. You lost your love. Now you are by yourself. So you keep your memories. Hoping one day, you can keep your love forever to stay!

Additional Notes:
Have you ever had to give up someone you love? I kept on hoping and eventually I found mine forever to stay!
