To Have Given It My All

To have given you my all
To have given you my everything
To feel the happiness
To feel the pain
Sitting here wondering if it'll ever be the same
Sitting here wondering where the happiness went
Sitting here wondering why
Sitting here wondering if we shall say goodbye
To have given you my all for not much more than a single word in the end
To have given you my everything just to know that our love was all pretend
To have experienced what I felt was happiness
To have the knife slowly jaggered through my soul
Sitting here wondering if I should give it one last try
Sitting here wondering blinking my eyes instead of a hard shedded cry
Sitting here wondering what true happiness feels like
Sitting here wondering how you truly feel under all those harsh words
To have given you my all
To have given you my everything
To feel the happiness slip away like sand glistening through my fingers
To feel the pain that I have inflicted on myself the day I gave you the key to my 
heart
To have taught myself the lesson of having a brand new heart
