Broken
The first kiss left my lips tingling and wanting more;
Our first date was magical
I remember when you first told me you loved me
The promises, I love you's and forever's
It was roses one day and a broken heart the next
How did things change so much since that first call...
How did we end up enemies instead of lovers
You gave up your soul and me without a thought
All the I love you's and I'm sorry's
Along with I forgive you's and I love you too's;
One million second chancs
One mistake too many
I must keep good on my word
I need to love myself
It's only hard because I let you be too much of me
And now you are gone and I am forced to leave
Not once but twice
The fight has gone out of me
Just as it went out of you a long time ago
People say you never know what you have till it's gone
The real question is did you
