A Complicated Goodbye


It was never meant to end like this

Two souls locked together

They were meant to be

For all eternity

 

But the fire in their souls were too strong

And it burned their hearts down

All the way to the ground

 

They were once

The unbreakable ones

The joy from within

The fire that never lights out

And now it’s no longer we

Just me

 

But he took her past her limits

Pushed her to the wall

And expected to be forgiven

Just like he always had been

 

He always placed her second priority

Number two on his list

She was getting so sick and tired of this

 

And who knew

This would be the end

With just a kiss

They were dismissed

 

He pierced through her heart

Leaving her in so much pain

Filled with unbearable rage

 

So they both went their separate ways

Hoping to never see each other again

But they knew that wouldn’t happen

 

So now I just see you on the corridor

Or on my way to class

And we both pretend we dont exist

Because who knew

It could’ve ended

Like this!!!
