Do You Know How It Feels?

Do you know how it feels to be dead while still alive?
To fall asleep each night? 

To the sound of your own cries?
To have your life change in the blink of an eye?
To discover your reality was nothing but lies?
Do you know how it feels to want someone to blame?
To find yourself alone when you're in the greatest of pain?
To shed a river of tears at the mention of a name?
To realize that from this day forward, things will never be the same?
Do you know how it feels to learn that your best wasn't enough?
For someone you love to violate your trust?
To find out those words were just the cold-hearted bluffs?
To accept that the future holds no more promises for us?
Do you know how it feels to make a fresh start?
And to keep a smile on your face, even after your whole world has fell apart?
