Description I don't know whether
The thousand litanies of 'I'm sorry's'
Will touch what's left of you
To see what's left of me.



But my bleeding heart it screams
Begging for your pardon when I know it cannot be.
And I know I was at fault, and I know I am to blame
And I'm raving and kneeling and begging



Your love, your heart I've to reclaim.



But the vacant look in your eyes
And the absence of your heart's warmth
Have shown me that the chance for love is past
And there's no going back



But you see, I can't let go
Not because I've nothing else
Not because I'd be alone, not because I am afraid
Or because I'd lose a semblance of home



But because you see,
YOU'RE ALL THE ALL OF ME
And without you to anchor this harrowed soul
My heart will roam the world empty.



(seeking only you)



And no, nothing and no one comes close to you
Even if you think my words are lies
Even if I know I've become everything you despise
Even if you've become deaf to my cries.



We hurt, and now you're so far away
Even if you're just mere inches away from me
It feels like a gulf so great divides
The love that once was and your present lifeless eyes.



I see you walk away and close the door behind you
And sit there waiting for you, clinging on to blind faith
I clutch on to us, you let me go with hate
And we have lost the dream…



So dearest hate me, scathe me with your words like bitter gall
I stand steadfast decrying 'You are still my all!'
And maybe I'm to blame… (I'm sorry darling, please forgive ---.)
Your love, your heart, let me please reclaim?

No you're not. You won't die, and if (by the way I'm interpreting this piece) she doesn't feel the same way to you as you did to her, then it's not worth it. If she treats you like crap and whatnot, then there are more people you can try for. See my comment in your journal. It says it better there.

Great wording, by the way. I always love how you pick eloquent words. No one writes stuff like you in today's world, anymore.
