Empty

by Kara, Sagittarius - Not entered

so now it's come to this
me, wondering where you've gone
trying to remember what it was to feel
the way I did
hoping that the love I gave
was not wasted on a dream

so now it's come to this
me, wondering who you are
trying to remember the person
I knew you to be
hoping that the tears I cried  
weren't given up in vain

so now it's come to this
me, staring at the sky
speaking to the stars 
of my sacrificial life
wishing they would grant me
the one truth that I search for

so now it's come to this 
me, believing another lie
inviting a broken heart
to be broken
even more

so now it's come to this
you, wondering why
you can't remember
the way you felt that night
when we sat, bathed in the soft glow
of artificial light 
and manmade stars 
and me, wishing you could remember
the way it felt to kiss me
and be completely helpless
in another's eyes
