How Can I Ever Know?


I have to go with my gut feeling, you see,
I've had a very hurtful time,
The love of my life; left my life,
And I'm not feeling fine.
Now he left me in 2003 before Xmas,
And oh how I cried and sobbed,
And to this day, I love him still,
Even though my heart was robbed!

He loved me, oh but yes he did,
No matter what anyone say's,
And I loved him and love him still,
And I will until the end of my days.
He couldn't be as he was with me,
And adore me, and love me true,
You can't be like that, and then walk away;
It can't have been easy to do.

I have a few serious health issues,
And he knew I could never look after him,
More, he was the one to look after me,
Argue over that; and I'd never win.
And then he left me just after that –
He didn't even give me a clue,
And my heart was totally and utterly broken;
I just didn't know what to do!

He knew of the health that I bear,
I was honest with him from the start,
And he said he loved me no matter what,
Yet that man broke my heart!
My life was so complete you know,
Oh how I loved that man in my life,
So much so, when he said those words;
I said; yes, I'd be his wife.'

So he bought me a ring for my finger,
And I was shocked at what he'd done,
Then after professing his undying love to me,
Then 9 weeks later he was gone!
So I cried and cried and cried each day,
And every night I cried again,
I was distraught that I'd lost him; I was;
I was in so much heartache and pain.

My gut instinct told me it was true,
Way back in 2003…
Now once again my heart is sore,
Why did he do this to me?
So time went on and two years later,
Not one word have I ever heard,
So he couldn't have loved me as I loved him,
Because there hasn't been any word!

So I have to admit,
I think the reason why he walked away,
Were because of the health problems I have?
So I say this very day!
I won't have that in my life, so ‘I' also walked away,
No negative vibes for me!
But still my pain runs as deep and as wide;
And as vast as the great big blue sea,

And I will believe, forever more,
That's why he's cowardly walked away from me.
He didn't even tell me why,
Didn't tell me on the phone or to my face you see!
He did it all in text messages,
Never came to face me as he should have done!
The coward's way out, that's no good to me,
And if he ever came back…he'd be gone!

Because there is no second chance in my life!!!

Because I am better than a text, and better than a lie!
And I swear to God, over him, no more tears will I cry!
Because I came through another door this day;
And now I can say it at last, that yep, I'm ok!!!

And love is replaced by another emotion over time…

For the love I held for him true; is no more.

And I never thought I would be able to say that;

But I guess it's time to let the pain go!

So I did!
