How old were you
when you realised
love was a lie?
I was 15
I loved a "king"
But he refused to
make me his queen

Years of love unreturned
Constant puzzle pieces adjusted
Thinking I'd pinned down
who he was
Just to see him change again

Never did he let me
hold his hand
Never did he give me
a second glance
Never had i fallen so deep
Never had i been such a fool

Torn heart pieces
made me strong
They said i couldn't
but i moved on and
proved them wrong
Sentiments, although real
can vanish in an instant
Wouldn't you drench yourself
in water if you were on fire
even if the fire was real?
