Forever Has Its End

You promised me forever

And yet I think forever doesn't exists

How could I?

If the person who said that isn't here

You said I'll be yours and you'll be mine

I'll be your Juliet and you'll be my Romeo

I'll be your princess and you'll be my prince

Like a fairytale it sounded so perfect, you and I

Yes, just you and I

Like any other fairytale I expected my "happily ever after"

But I was wrong

Because fairytales are merely fantasies

Fantasies like you and I spending that forever with each other

Didn't you hear me calling out to you?

Telling you to stay

But you just shrugged my feelings and never looked back

What about that promise?

A promise of forever, a promise that you'll never leave me

"I'll never leave you, I love you!"

Every night you recited those words to me

Gullible as I am, I believed them

Days, weeks, months pass you left without a trace

No texts, emails or even calls from you

Even a simple "Hi!" or "How are you?"

Like a transient being you come and go as you please

More days pass I grew more and more anxious

Anxious to see you, to be near you

Even just for a moment, even just a second

I swallowed ever pride I had and stood before you

I couldn't see any ounce of happiness on your face

I thought you'd be happy to see me

To see the girl you were to spend your forever with

I asked you if I could still spend that forever with you

Before you could answer she placed herself by your side

She asked you who I was

"Just a friend."

You simply said and gave me a sympathetic smile

I felt tears forming and held them back

Not now, I thought

Not in front of him

You said goodbye and walked away holding her hand

Holding hers' and not mine

I felt tears flowing, I wiped them off

"Goodbye my prince, I hope you'll be happy with your princess!"

I turned my back and walked away

Away from you, away from my forever
