Our Story


You loved me.

That was okay.

I made you wait

For another day.

 

Then I loved you.

And it was sweet.

But we were young.

It was a two-way street.

 

We grew apart.

We grew older.

I kept all your letters

In my secret folder.

 

Then we felt the same.

But I was sick.

We decided to wait.

We took the risk.

 

But then you met her.

And forgot about me.

My heart was yours,

But you decided to flee.

 

I thought you'd change your mind.

Like we'd both done before.

But I'm still waiting

With the shards of my heart scattered on the floor.
