Besides You

Besides you 

Nothing ever heals 
          Never this 
Bleeding heart will rejuvenate 
          New girls bandage me 
But these sores still fester 
          Never scabbing over 

Jaded this trust we did desecrate 
Over time I thought the hurt grows lesser 
And I'm wrong. 
You;   
I cant replace 
          With another 
Or others.           Long lists of disappointing lovers. 
          Nothing, or no one can satisfy 
Or fill this hole -           that losing you left this life. 
I Lost polarity of my soul 

Please don't make a final decision 
Please                    reconsider           mending 
          My family.                     My one ambition.
