April is the month I'll always think of you,
it's gentle breezes now chill my broken heart.
Forced to surrender to the bitter sweetness,
of knowing our two souls must now live apart.
Sweet is all the undeniable love,
that fate has lavished unto me.
A soulmate was found in your eyes,
you are and always will be my destiny.
Bitter is the agonizing torture I feel,
knowing our destiny won't play out.
You linger heavy in my heart and soul,
but you, I'm forced to now live without.
Sweet is the sound of your voice,
and the bright smile always on your face.
Bitter is knowing it's not for me anymore,
for your own reasons...I've been replaced.
The bitter sweetness and irony of it all,
rips my broken heart completely into two.
One Half for the bitterness of letting you go,
one half for the sweetness of still loving you.
