if only i knew that his simple "hi" would be the start of a broken heart,
i would have just blocked him.
it's funny how a simple greeting can make you feel like you're on top of the world,
but then it all crashes down.
i thought maybe this was it, maybe this was the start of something.
i imagined us talking all the time, laughing together,
and feeling like i had a real connection with him.
it was like a beautiful dream, but it faded away as fast as it started.
his "hi" was like a little spark that set my heart on fire.
but now, the silence is a cold reminder that the fire went out.
it's like a ghost of a connection that never really existed.
and the worst part is, i can't even blame him.
he didn't know how much his "hi" meant to me,
how it made my heart race and my hopes rise.
if i had known then what i know now,
i would have saved myself all the pain.
but you can't go back in time, so now i'm just left
picking up the pieces of my broken heart.
