I won't need

Take away my heart,
Take away my all,
Now that you're not here,
I won't need anything anymore.

You were the beat of my heart,
You taught my heart to love,
But now that you're not here,
I won't need it anymore.

To wait is so hard,
When you know no one's coming home,
I gotta put away the clocks,
I won't need it anymore.

To breathe is so hard,
When smile and tears get lost,
There's nothing left for me in air,
I won't need it anymore.

You were the beat of my heart,
You taught my heart to love,
But now that you're not here,
I won't need it anymore.

You were my sunshine,
My rain, my valentine,
My everything you were,
And my everything's gone.

I believed in everything 'coz of you,
This world then seemed so true,
It was a heaven for me before,
But i won't need it anymore.

Take away my heart,
Take away my all,
Now that you're not here,
I won't need anything anymore.

Ah, don't! This is heartbreak at its desperate moment, when life takes the knife and kisses the world adieu since Love turned false and day is blackest night. Don't! Dinna even let the thought linger. It crystallized into this precious and haunting poem, a wonderful tribute to deepest heartache, but let it be only art, not reality. Awesome tribute with wonderful imagery. Eerie. Lovely in the excellence of conveyance. Terrifying in its reality. Superb.
