Analysis of What did you do?



You never hurt me,
You broke me.
You never left me alone,
You just quited me to die in the dark.

You never made me weep,
You just left me to sob in the dark.
You never left me whenever I needed,
You just never hold my hands tight.

You didn't give me any pain,
But you ceased reasons to smile.
You did no harm to me,
You just burried me alive in the grave.
