Analysis of When you left



When you left my heart stopped
When you left my world fell apart
When you left everything had changed
When you left I was never the same
When you left I cried on the inside
When you left I turned cold  on the outside
When you left a huge burden I did hold
You were my babygirl my precious child
When you left I said I will be strong
And hide all this pain
When you left I thought I would soon be ok
When you left  I hated the world
I was so numb
It's been almost six years and still nothing has changed
I'm still numb inside with all this pain
When you left my soul left with you
