Keep It Light

I never thought it would end like this,
   Your face and voice things I miss.

     All my days and nights I spend all alone,
  Lost in the void, lingering in the unknown.

     What becomes of all the broken hearts?
  I can see the end just don’t know where to start.

     I hear your happy and doing well,
  My world bleak a living hell.

     I’m not sure why you can’t be a friend,
  A smile some kind words a hand to lend.

     I don’t know why you won’t talk to me,
  I don’t know why this must be.

     You want nothing to do with me or so I’m told,
  I wonder if you wonder how I keep control.

     I get it our love is no more,
  I’m not looking to even the score.

     A cup of coffee, not looking to fight,
  Simple conversation will keep it light.
