This poem is from a male's POV:

What we had between us, started out un-real
But all that we knew back then, is how it made us feel
I found a girl who loved me, who made me feel complete
A girl who's like no other, who danced right to my beat

My day felt complete whenever I saw your face
But whenn we were apart it was like running a race
I was tired and anxious when you were gone or late
Because somehow, I thought I found my soulmate

A few months passed and I was happy as ever
You made me a better person for now and forever
You made me work on my self on every different level
But the lurking surprise was the heartbreaking devil

As days passed we spoke less and less
I thought that maybe you were stuck in some mess
I tried to understand, although it was hard
But what happened next caught me off guard

You said you wanted a break from our little paradise
Whenever I remember those words, a little part of me dies
Just to make you feel better, I gave you a little space
But that space turned into a galaxy and I was lost in its daze

My days were incomplete like someone stopped time
And my heart was aching like its scared of some crime
I somewhat felt better whenever I thought of you
And thought that maybe you were missing me too

Then one day it happened and I couldn't know why
You were over there, with some other guy
I couldn't tell if I was shaking, or was it the sound of my heart breaking
But all that I knew is that I was definitely mistaken

That girl over there, it couldn't be you
Or was I just blind to see it was true
You wanted some space, just to let in someone new
I was just too blind to see it because I trusted you

Then reality hit me, and it hit me real hard
You played me, just like a magician would play a deck of cards
I let you in and I lowered my guard
Just so you can fool me and leave my heart scarred

You made me feel happy just to take away my smile
You made me feel at home just to throw me in exile
You made me feel complete just to shatter my heart
Now please just go so I can a put back its parts

I'm a living ghost, a mere human shell
Who's guard is now raised as it once fell
I'll never let you in like I did before
I'll just see what fate has for me in store

I'll wait ages before I let anyone in
Because my heart refuses to open its doors again
I'll stay locked behind my heart's door
Hiding from what life has for me in store
