Everything

You were everything to me
Sadly, you no longer are
I'm writing this with total sincerity
I meant it when I said you were my shooting star

You were everything to me
And now I have to pretend that
You were nothing, we were nothing
That there are no wounds to mend

You were everything to me
But it was my mistake
To give you my all without asking
If you wanted it. But it's too late now that I'm wide awake

You were everything to me
We were the epitome of love
Our sparks were the brightest
But I shouldn't have let my whole life slip away and put you above

You were everything to me
And yes, at some point you brought me joy
But you earned the, "were", lost me and the, "are"
You hurt me but I would never let you be the reason I'm destroyed

You were everything to me
But we were tangent lines
Destined to cross paths once and only once
And that's just fine

You were everything to me
But I'm just thankful we were
It happened, you happened, and it flew with the wind
But it was worth it, that's for sure.
