You and I
Weren't meant to be
Yet we wereBaseless conversations
Irrelevant accusations
Yet we stuck like glueI hated the words
You wrote like petal flowers cascading under the stems
You told me I was just like thatWhen did we fall?
Was it before or after?
When did we begin?You say I don't belong
But have you noticed that under your fake eyelashes
You didn't either?Let me tell the tale
Of two lovers that fell
But did we really?Sometimes I sleep and sometimes I think
When did we begin?
Was it worth it?The feelings that rushed when you touched me
It all came falling down
You were the storm inside the clouds and I was the calm seaDid I give you my heart?
Did I give you my body?
I don't remember but I know I didn't give you my soulA person like you
Can't
Have itThere we were
A little girl and a little boy
Standing under the treesThe rain came falling down
Drenching our feet
Soaking in our shouldersYour eyes were black
Mine were too
But our moods were ever blueYou asked me my name
I asked you yours
You predicted the weather's likelihoodI prayed to God
That I reached home
But guess what? I never didYou touched my shoulder and said
"Are you afraid?"
Was I?Did my expression say it all?
Did you know?
Did you know that we were a broken bridge about to fall?There are some things that aren't meant to be said
To be written
To be listened toBut then again, our story was different
We began
We endedBut in all of these
We fell
We brokeOur story wasn't about love
It was about how two strangers
Began and then again beganIt was how much the words weighed
Behind those dark creases in your forehead
Behind those smile linesAfter all we were two little lovers
One girl and one boy
Love afflicted, conflictedEverything that, deep down,
Will hurt like
HellIt was
You
And MeIt was everything
It was ours to begin with and end with
It was Us
So without further delay let's
Begin.
