Not Strong Enough

Away my love for you I swore
For we lost what we had once before
And though the burdens of grief I bore
Your love for me is for never more

I pretend the feelings are not there
Of the love and passion we once would share
I don’t love you, I swear, I swear
It does not hurt that you don’t care

That, of course, a blatant lie
Day in, day out, I question why
That every day for you I cry
And wish the light in me would die

I told myself my love was gone
And that I thought I could move on
But quite so obvious, I was wrong
I still dream of you from dusk to dawn
