......Broken..............

I felt the cut as the knife fell

As time stood still I waited

Moments were my last day

That which once had held me

Now the one who set me free

For what had held now was two

Bitter in being but remaining sweet

For what was given as lost in heart

As silence comes lost in song

Words to fall silent lost by one

There I remain just by memory

Lost to search there to stay

Broken what held has gone away
