Broken

Once I was whole, I was with you
You showed me the meaning of "to thine own self be true"
But we lost sight of that truth
Our brokenness shows us the proof
now my heart is shattered on the floor
Seems I'm picking up those pieces more and more
Some are missing, they are yours
I can't piece them together like before
once you were by my side
There was nothing from you my soul could hide
You knew my every detail, inside and out
With out you it's hard to figure what it was all about
I care for you, I hope you know
But now isn't the time to let it show
This sorrow imprisons my love for you
At least in my heart I know it's true

Dont think that I am weak just because I am crying
Lord knows how hard it is to let go, but I am trying.
Everytime I think of you a piece of my keeps dying.
If I told yo I didnt love you I would be lying.
But in the One who loves me more then anything I place my heart.
It's where it should have been in the start.
I dont know why I cant stop myself.
I dream of you, long to be with you but somehow I need to put you on that shelf.
