I poured my heart and soul out
to 2:43 a.m.
I told it all of my secrets like
how I had loved you
until we both couldn't love because
her legs were long enough for two of us and
about how once you threw me
across a room
but kissed away the pain and so
the next morning I wasn't hurt
only bruised and
I knew that a bruise would go away
I poured my heart and soul out
to 2:44 a.m.
about how we spent the whole romance trying
to figure out how to fix me
because I was broken and
I was ruined from a past relationship and
you always thought I still loved him,
with your tears on my shirt and
in your pillow
you thought I still loved him
but honey,
the truth is
I never loved anyone like I loved you
when the storms came through
and I held your hand and
I was patient
honey,
the truth is
there will never be another like you
because you were my everything
I poured my heart and soul out
to 2:45 a.m.
about how you were so upset
when I cut my hair and
when I lost the baby
I lost a part of you
how I never could get you back
because you were so perfect and
I was so flawed.
I was only holding you back.
so,
in all honesty, 2:45 a.m.,
I let him go.
I made room for myself in my soul.
