When you love someone
Sometimes you give up your soul
You give up every ounce of your being
Just to be with that person
*You lose yourself*
In them
In their world
Their days become your days
Their friends become your friends
Their family your family
You let go of so much of your life, of yourself
You get lost in the layers
Of their ambience
To only find out later
It was all for nothing
Now
Your left
Picking up the pieces
Trying to figure out
Who you are
Where do you go from here
Why
When you love someone
Sometimes you lose yourself along the way
Sometimes you find yourself
And sometimes
You just pick the pieces
Up along the way
And pray you will be ok
