It Seemed Such a Perfect Thing

Everything was so beautiful
Now I’m left cold as stone
Everything seemed so perfect
Now I’m left all alone

Ripped away
A piece of me
You haven’t yet returned
And I wish I could have done the same
So you could feel how bad it hurts
I’m empty without you it seems
And it might as well be the end of me

All of the world seemed so beautiful
Now so dull and destructive
All of my life seemed so purposeful
Now I'm just useless and apathetic

Tore away
A part of me
You keep in a dresser drawer
I’d ask for it back but you wouldn’t comply
So there seems to be nothing more
You left me broken and weak inside
Missing a vital piece of my life
The memories are the only thing holding me
And I hate relying on such useless things

Your eyes were so beautiful
I could gaze and gaze and not lose interest
You used to claim I was so perfect
When did your opinion change?

Oh my god... I just felt a rush of depression after reading this. I know exactly where you were at when you wrote this, because regretfully I'm there right now. Beautifully written.

"You used to claim I was so perfect/When did your opinion change?" The whispered words of doubt and pain make a melody I've wished I'd never had to hear. This is beautifully written. *Evangel*
