What Now?

The heart that beats within my chest
Begins to pound with fear
Everything is going to change
As I wipe away a tear

Just the thought of all the secrets
The betrayal and the lies
Makes my stomach knot and churn
And my heart bleed and cry.

Everything comes crashing down
My paradise is at an end
Everything was an illusion
No matter what, he’s still my friend

He means more to me than I can say
And I’ve loved him from the start
But my heart it splitting into two
As everyone tries to tear us apart

First my dying past flies by
My memories all in a rush
The long dead friendships
And trios turned to dust

I sigh and shiver without cold
And I think of all that’s been
And in my heart I realize
How much I truly love him
