The Old Us


Sadly it turns out everything I once said was a lie.

Even though I had the best intentions in the end 

it all just ended up a lie.

At first you started off as my bestfriend,

few months later I end up being the lucky guy.

But now look where we are, and yet I only wonder why.

The feeling you get, when you lose somebody, you truly love.

Only inside will that person know the damage that was done,

I sat and thought over and over how could I be so dumb.

When you always had my back and you were the only one

The only one I saw, and the only one I wanted.

But when I heard I made you cry, my mind, I almost lost it.

The tears, they hit the bathroom floor, louder than the bathroom faucet 

I lost all of your trust, you've had enough, So I get if there is no talking.

No apology, no excuse can make up for what I have done,

You made me feel as If I was on top of the world, number one.

I knew it from the jump, a queen deserves a king and not a crumb;

I was stupid and took advantage of all the good I once had,

Thinking that I had room for mistakes and that whatever happened, that we'd last 

I looked at the few things, that you didnt give. When yet you had so much to offer.

But that's on me, till this day. I pray and I hope that you prosper.

I hope you grow and you become the strong lady you are meant to be.

I also hope that you meet the man you deserve, and he treats you like a queen.

I miss you...
