Never did I think it would be this hard.

My heart aches.

Emptiness is all I feel inside.

Completely hollow.

Constantly keeping myself from crying,

I have to realize this is what I need.

But does it have to be so difficult?

It's as if the air has been sucked from my lungs,

and I just keep gasping for him.

Why does it always happen this way,

"You don't realize what you have until it's gone."

Why did we have to hurt each other in order to know we cared so much?

He tells me our paths will cross again,

which only makes it worse.

I just want to shout like Veruca Salt;

"I WANT IT NOW!!"

Doesn't he see that my heart beats for him?

There's no one else I want.

Unfortunately it took all of this

for me to come to this vital realization.
