"Healing"

"Healing"

I feel like I could hold my heart in my hand
And watch it crumble from my touch
Yet I'm not willing to let go of the love yet
I'm afraid I could lose so much

So I pretend my heart is still in one piece
And my life is the way it was then
Sometimes I even say 'just maybe'
I start to think about how or when

But that longed for happiness never really comes
The pain always manages to seep through
That distant aching won't let me forget
Something I already knew

So as the never ending tears start to fall
I wonder what will ease this pain
Healing seems so far out of my grasp
If I won't let go of the love that remains
