With a heavy heart, you apologize
And ready yourself to walk away
I never thought we'd say goodbye,
But I guess you proved me wrong today
As I lay awake and try to comprehend
Such a devastatingly deep heart break, again
I reminesce in our past,
When I'd believed we would last
Through all the fights held in a year
Of bitter sweet memories, loving moments,
Hurtful words, and wasted tears
I'd always thought that we'd endure
For you, I've never lost sight of the love
That my heart did always bare
Even when you lost yours,
Mine did never wear
Without even another glance,
For the last time, you turn away
And I can't even reach for you,
So in my place I stay
You're hanging me out to dry,
Taking away my only friend
I can't even find the tears to cry,
Because you'll be happy, in the end
It's only now, that I have come to realize,
We misconstructed the basis of this relation
I built us up on the love I held
As you tore us down in fear of it
While I thought love a suitable frame,
You found it to be a wrecking ball
So, I, in turn, used it the same
And hurt you with it, like you'd hurt me
In the end, both knocking each other down,
It was clear we could not pretend any longer
That we were meant for one another
We had finally been demolished to the end
Every misconception of what we were,
Of all that we could have been,
Has driven us apart at last;
With nothing left but my wish to amend
I sold you on the idea that I was fine
I told you that I understood
But in my heart, you'll always be mine,
Even if it makes no sense to the mind
My wish to you, my last hope,
Is that you do what makes you happy
Whether you stay with her or elsewhere,
Just find love in who you are
I want you to live for yourself, and no other,
Don't lose who you are to fit an expectation,
And, no matter where you are, do remember
If you need me, I'll always be here
