It's Up to Me

by HarryT

 

She left me, now deep shadows dwell
My wounded heart, no words can tell
A smothering shroud binds so tight
Tighter and tighter each sleepless night

Rope upon rope squeezing my chest
Every morning, a painful test
All of our dreams have taken flight
My life dwindling more every night

Oh, my God, please give me some hope
To break this feeling, I must cope
Ache swirls refusing to depart
I'm stranded with a shattered heart

I know within a strength does lie
Within is my power to rise
Work to accept, I will break free
Only then will I become me
