The first time I saw you I thought you were mesmerizing
You were so handsome and I was hoping you noticed me too
The first time we talked I thought to myself wow he's so beautiful and I'm so ordinary
On our first date I felt your gaze towards me as I ate little bits of pieces of fish off my plate
When we first held hands I felt a spark that was like nothing I ever felt before
Our first kiss made me want more of you
I didn't think we'd get this far
It went by so fast
But in time it seemed like things got worse
With my mood swings and outbursts
With your anger problems and saying things you didn't mean
I felt like we were losing each other in time
Every time we'd argue it felt like days
I didn't know what to do
I've never been in a real actual relationship
And I'm sorry
I'm sorry I couldn't be the branches on the trees that sprung out
I'm sorry I couldn't change like the leaves do in the fall
I'm sorry that I ended up losing your trust just because of my stupid decisions
Sometimes I feel like I won't be able to forgive myself
But one thing I know for sure
Is that I love you
I love you with all the planets aligned
I love you with all the hurricanes and tornados that come through
Like shattered glass
There are broken hearts
And I think with our broken hearts
In time we can mend them
We can change our perspective of everything we've ever felt or lost
We can be whole again.
