From Day One

From day one 

you always made me feel special. 

You told me I was your world, 

that there’s no one else, 

that I was beautiful, 

And all the other sweet symphonies a girl would want to hear.

 And from the look in your eyes,

you could fool anybody into thinking you were telling the truth 

From day one 

our relationship has been long distance 

but I didn’t care 

because I love you 

You taught me how to open up

something I was never able to do...

before you..

Because I love you 

I put down my wall 

I let all my emotions that were once bottled up

come out. 

You saw a side of me that I never knew existed 

From day one 

I thought we were happy 

I thought nothing and nobody would ever come between us 

I was wrong...

January 2017 

Your decisions made me look at you differently 

January 2017 

The month I realized 

I loved you more than what I said I did 

January 2017

Brought the worst pain 

The type of pain I wouldn’t wish on anybody 

You got caught. 

You cheated. 

Was I really that bad?

That you had to go and cheat?

From day one 

I told you that I’d be down with you through whatever

And I meant it 

So despite it all

Despite the countless tears 

and sleepless nights 

Because I love you..

I stayed. 

I stayed to make sure you were okay 

completely forgetting that I was completely broken on the inside. 

Because I love you 

Because I love you 

I put my trust back into you 

I forgave you 

And I put my heart back on the line 

knowing that it could easily fall back into a million pieces 

But because you love me

you showed me there no reason to be afraid anymore, 

that I could trust you again

Today I’m the happiest I’ve been in a while 

because of you

because I chose to continue to love you.
