Why Do I Still Love You?

Literature Text

Eyes stinging red from lack of sleep,
Wishing my heart was yours to keep.
Feelings of emptiness and despair;
Bitter wounds I doubt will repair.

Claustraphobia sinking in,
Nursing a broken heart within.
Dreams of you in my head
Make me happy, yet full of dread.

Flashbacks of you rejecting me
Are too painful for me to see.
Yet they're here and haunt me still,
Making me hollow and ill.

You got a boyfriend, I died inside.
Now, all I want to do is hide.
Can't concentrate on anything I do,
For I always start thinking of you.

Haunted by images of the two of you,
Helplessly watch my dreams die too.
Depression starts to stain my skin,
My confidence now wearing thin.

Colour drained from my eyes,
Fearful of eternal goodbyes.
I know I'll always be your friend;
I don't know if my pain will end.

If I'm suffering all this pain,
If there's nothing I have to gain,
Why do I still love you?
A love unbroken and true.
i don't know
