Broken

I sat there,
I sat there numb and unfeeling,
As you tore me apart,
You said we needed to talk,
I sat there listening,
To words I didn't want to hear,
Blocking them out with every breath,
Hoping you were lying or wrong,
Couldn't you just be joking?
Just tell me you were joking please,
I sat there wanting to cry,
But couldn't,
I was happy one day,
Then I blinked,
And it was over,
It was a pain sharp and sudden,
I was simply in shock,
But I went along with what you said,
You sat next to me in the beginning,
I held my knees together,
When you told me it was over,
You said it's what you honestly wanted,
Then you took your love away,
I wanted to throw up,
I wanted to die,
I wanted to show some emotion...
But I just sat there,
You were standing by then,
No longer next to me,
No longer by my side,
I was alone in so many ways,
Just sitting there,
Then I did the unexpected,
I gave you a hug,
And told you everything would be okay,
And that I'd still be your friend,
And that I'd always be there for you,
You were killing me,
Breaking my heart with the passion of yours,
And still, I gave you what I needed the most,
Cuz I could tell you were sad too,
I know you didn't want to hurt me,
So I put on a good face,
And let you win,
I sat back down,
And told you I was okay,
Then it was time to leave,
I started to walk away,
You grabbed my hand,
We just stood there for a minute,
Hands held,
Like we were assuring each other we'd be okay,
And I looked in your eyes,
As our hands slipped away,
And I watched you walk away,
It was raining outside,
On the grass,
On the ground,
I just sat there
