Just A Girl

I was just a girl, when you found me that day
All the way in the back of the room, because I came in late
You sat in the chair behind me and told me how you liked my name
And I swear to all the stars in the sky, it has never sounded the same

Two years went by and I didn't think of you
Until that day

My friends told me you stared as I walked by
Then when I walked in you said you liked that I was shy
I was too nervous to speak
I never thought of you in that way before
But then my heart began to get excited every time you walked through that door

I was just a girl
A girl, who fell for you
All because you ignited the flame
The day you took my breathe away

Fast forward two years now, I'm writing these poems about you
I'm all alone in my bedroom
We haven't spoken in 4 months
Yes, I still cry
And I'll admit, I still keep wondering why

I was just a girl
A girl, who fell in love
A girl, who loved the boy, who didn't love her enough
I had a stupid crush
But I guess, it didn't mean much
Because when you walked out that door
My heart laid on the floor
A part of me wished that you would come back
That you would run towards me, before my heart even had a crack
But it was a fools dream
Because you no longer cared for me
This, I now see
Since then my heart has slowly stopped beating
Because it's only purpose was to beat for you
But you no longer care, because you have someone new
While I'm all alone, in my dark lonely room
